Today's Insight!

"'IN the beginning, God!' Clear and expressive are these words. In the beginning, God only. No manifest universe! No system of planets! Nothing of form or life, of brute or man! God was the Spirit of All that was to be, but He had not yet moved upon the waters. Then this All-Being moved, or began to create. "

"Where did Spirit move, upon what did It move to create; where did It get a pattern; what means or power did It employ; through what agencies did It work? In short, what is the world, ourselves included, made out of, and how did we and all else come into being? These questions correctly answered would solve the problem of being and set men free. Let Us consider.

The Spirit was all; there was nothing else but Itself. All-Inclusive, Everywhere, Infinite. This All-Spirit could not have had the impulse to move unless It were self-conscious, therefore the Spirit is the Power that knows Itself; It is accordingly All-Knowing as well as All-Present. Being one, undivided, whatever It knows, It knows all over instantly. We find then that the Spirit operates through self knowing. It moves, and that inner movement must be One of Infinite Power, moving upon Itself — since It is all — and with a definite purpose. The Spirit, then, moves upon Itself, and makes out of Itself all that is made. In other words, what we see comes from what we do not see, through some inner intelligence at work, which knows there is no power but Itself. 'The things that are seen are not made of the things that do appear.'"

Insight:
"The only possible operation of intelligence is thought, or 'The Word.' So all things were made by the Word, and 'Without the Word was not anything made that hath been made.' How simple the process of creation when we understand it. The Spirit speaks — and since there is nothing but the Spirit and it is All-Power, it has only to speak and it is done; 'The Word was with God and the Word was God.'"

"It Operates Simply By Speaking"
