The universe must exist for the self-expression of God and the delight of God.
I do not believe that God has imposed suffering upon anyone to punish them or to teach them a lesson.
Prayer is a thought, a belief, a feeling, arising within the mind of the one praying.
God gives some more than others because some accept more than others.
To believe in a just law of cause and effect, carrying with it a punishment or a reward, is to believe in righteousness.
The intellect is a cold thing and a merely intellectual idea will never stimulate thought in the same manner that a spiritual idea does.
Teach and practice, practice and teach - that is all we have; that is all we are good for; that is all we ever ought to do.

So plastic is mind, so receptive, that the slightest thought makes an impression upon it. People who think many kinds of thought must expect to receive a confused manifestation in their lives.
