Something New

Geoffrey J. Barratt

That a design or product is new sometimes seems to be its only virtue. The many sales made on this basis suggest how much people long for newness.

Spiritual being is always new. The truth of spiritual being is always new. It is so because it's unending. It's refreshing—uniquely so—to appreciate this. True being is not like a wheel or a pendulum, coming back and back to the same place again and again. Truth never expresses itself in the same way. Unending variety characterizes it. Though phrases in which spiritual truth is expressed may seem very familiar, individual spiritual ideas from divine Mind never come to us twice in a completely like way.

One day does not drably pattern the last for the individual who is recognizing this. Nor is he faced by chronic problems and a drought of inspiration in solving them. But he is delighting in being an innovative and healing spiritual thinker.
