Forward to healing

JEAN M. ANSLEY

Whether a trouble is longstanding or of recent origin, complete and permanent healing through the power of Spirit can come now! The victory for Spirit doesn't have to take time. To Spirit, God, there is no flesh—all is Spirit and its ideal spiritual creation. Our recognition of this truth can bring immediate healing.

There may be occasions, though, when persistence is needed. If a healing doesn't come quickly, it may be necessary to erase self-pity, self-condemnation, or fear of criticism and to be encouraged by Paul's words, "Our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory."^{II Cor. 4:17;}

Healing comes through the fear-lifting recognition of the all-power and omnipresence of God. We need to trust God, acknowledge His supremacy, feel His nearness, cherish His all-encompassing love. God's allness precludes any reality or apparent effect of matter or mortal mind, the suppositional opposite of supreme divine Mind.
