In time of stress, what do you stress?

LIEBER ANKER

In times of need, what do you find yourself emphasizing—the problem or God's love for you? The illness or God's care of you?

"The Lord is thy keeper," Ps. 121:5; the Bible asserts. We need to remember this in difficult times; make our importunity for help an opportunity to let God heal us.

The divine Principle of the universe, God, is the source of our spiritual and real selfhood, and God maintains the perfection of that selfhood. Realizing the infinite goodness of Principle and our true nature as its expression, we learn what to emphasize and what to de-emphasize. Stressing the good dispels the darkness of evil; it establishes an understanding of our everlasting unity with God. This unity is our armor, because God's might and omnipresence preclude anything unlike Him having access to us or even existing. Strain, pressure, stress, cannot exist in the inseparable relationship that exists between God and man.
