In Tune with the Infinite; or, Fullness of Peace, Power, and Plenty
Trine, Ralph Waldo
New Thought
Recognize, working in and through you, the same Infinite Power that
creates and governs all things in the universe, the same Infinite Power
that governs the endless systems of worlds in space. Send out your
thought,--thought is a force, and it has occult power of unknown
proportions when rightly used and wisely directed,--send out your
thought that the right situation or the right work will come to you at
the right time, in the right way, and that you will recognize it when
it comes. Hold to this thought, never allow it to weaken, hold to it,
and continually water it with firm expectation. You in this way put
your advertisement into a psychical, a spiritual newspaper, a paper
that has not a limited circulation, but one that will make its way not
only to the utmost bounds of the earth, but of the very universe
itself. It is an advertisement, moreover, which if rightly placed on
your part, will be far more effective than any advertisement you could
possibly put into any printed sheet, no matter what claims are made in
regard to its being "the great advertising medium." In the degree that
you come into this realization and live in harmony with the higher laws
and forces, in that degree will you be able to do this effectively.
If you wish to look through the "want" columns of the newspapers, then
do it not in the ordinary way. Put the higher forces into operation
and thus place it on a higher basis. As you take up the paper, take
this attitude of mind: If there is here an advertisement that it will
be well for me to reply to, the moment I come to it I will recognize
it. Affirm this, believe it, expect it. If you do this in full faith
you will somehow feel the intuition the moment you come to the right
one, and this intuition will be nothing more nor less than your own
soul speaking to you. When it speaks then act at once.
If you get the situation and it does not prove to be exactly what you
want, if you feel that you are capable of filling a better one, then
the moment you enter upon it take the attitude of mind that this
situation is the stepping-stone that will lead you to one that will be
still better. Hold this thought steadily, affirm it, believe it,
expect it, and all the time be faithful, _absolutely faithful_ to the
situation in which you are at present placed. If you are _not_
faithful to it then the chances are that it will not be the
stepping-stone to something better, but to something poorer. If you
are faithful to it, the time may soon come when you will be glad and
thankful, when you will rejoice, that you lost your old position.
