n n n ARE YOU, as was Martha of Bible days, “troubled about many things?” Are you weary of the relentless routine of an apparently purposeless existence? Are you fearful of the future? Does sleep evade you and despair engulf you as you turn restlessly from one problem to another?
Would it help you to be reminded of how the Nazarene carpenter met every adverse situation? He cut instantly through the obstructing mist whether it was occasioned by ignorance, stupidity or spiritual blindness, and turned directly to the Father within. He admitted frankly, “Of mine own self I can do nothing. The Father within He doeth the works.” Consequently, that complete reliance upon the invisible power within him, brought into acknowledgeable visibility the needed result.
Surely no one can forget the remarkable account of how Lazarus was restored to life. The stone was taken away from the entrance to the tomb; “and Jesus lifted up his eyes; and said, Father, I thank thee that thou has heard me. And I know that thou hearest me always.” And Lazarus came forth. Nor was there the slightest doubt in Jesus’ mind but that the power of God was operating at that moment when it was most needed.
The advice of the Nazarene carpenter to all who listened was “Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.” In other words, cease from taking thought about the problem; drop it and turn directly to the God-presence and God-power that are constantly, hence immediately available to you because of your oneness with the Father. Do you know of any greater comfort to be found anywhere than in the words “I and my Father are one?” To recognize the power in that statement and then dwell in meditation upon it is to lift oneself from the material plane of humanhood to an ever-ascending spiritual plane whose foundation can never crumble because it is built upon every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
Let us cease our struggles to solve the problems that beset us. Let us follow the example of the Nazarene carpenter and turn directly to the assuring presence of the Father within. Let us also take literally, “The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me,” and let us rest in it. Let us rest, however, in faith, nothing wavering for as James said, “... he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. Let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord.”
The key to arriving at that spiritual plateau where problems can no longer buffet us about, where peace within is assured is a simple five-letter word, faith. Faith that the invisible within Power will manifest itself visibly in the meeting of our need. However, if we would acquire spiritual faith, let us be certain to practice it.
