LARGESS UNLIMITED
Good Morning!!!
LARGESS UNLIMITED
Around the Year with Emmet Fox
July 16
The most mischievous thing in life
is man's reluctance
to perceive his own dominion.
God has given us dominion over all things,
but we shrink like frightened children
from assuming it,
although that assuming
is the one and only escape for us.
Jesus, who knew the human heart,
and understood our weakness
in this respect, commands us,
"Ask, and it shall be given you;
seek, and ye shall find;
knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
For every one that asketh receiveth;
and he that seeketh findeth;
and to him that knocketh it shall be opened."
Matthew 7:7-8
Is not this the Magna Carta of personal freedom
for every man, woman, and child on earth?
Is not this the decree
of the emancipation of the slaves
of every kind of bondage,
physical, mental, or spiritual?
We have no business to accept
ill-health, or poverty, or sinfulness,
or strife, or unhappiness,
or remorse, with resignation.
We have no right to accept anything less than
freedom and harmony and joy,
for only with these things do we glorify God,
and express His holy will,
which is our raison d'ĂȘtre@.
We are to reorganize our lives
in accordance with his teaching,
continuously and untiringly
until our goal is attained.
That this attainment;
that our victory over every negative condition
is not merely possible
but is definitely promised to us,
finds its proof in these glorious words.
@The purpose that justifies a thing's existence
