Business as an unfolding of good

FEROL AUSTEN

An understanding of the Science of being and a willingness to accept the fact of spiritual existence will go far in alleviating the fears that permeate not only the world of business but the world in general.

Business, in the kingdom of God, is God's business. As such it is the activity of divine Mind and Love, and therefore suffers no inflation, recession, depression, unemployment, or any other fluctuation of mortal belief. But unless we comprehend the activity of business as the actual expression of the continual outpouring of God's goodness, we're limiting ourselves and inviting monstrous and needless anxieties.

What is actually going on is the activity of the Christ. Jesus spoke of being about his "Father's business." Luke 2:49; This is what we can begin to recognize as flourishing all around us. Business, based on a perception of God, divine Principle, is not a necessary evil, swinging from one crisis to another. On the contrary, it is abundance in action—with each of us in reality reflecting the all-embracing goodness of God.
