Back to normal?

NATHAN A. TALBOT

If health seems beyond reach, or a once stable relationship appears headed for the rocks, or financial security is slipping away, there is an answer.

The human mind may very naturally yearn for things to be the way they were before the problem surfaced. Yet this yearning could be exactly what is blocking a solution. True health, harmony, abundance, do not belong to the past. Our need isn't really to get back to normal. Regardless of the challenge, our most vital need is not satisfied by any kind of retreat. It's fulfilled by God's present and inevitable law of progress.

Now is the time to recognize the operation of this law—to accept a foundation that makes health immune to change, to yield to an even deeper recognition that harmony with our fellowman is based on an immortal unity with God, and to rejoice in a clearer understanding that the substance of supply is unchanging, ever-present Spirit.
