From Memoirs of an Ordinary Mystic
"Realize anew
that I am everywhere. In a perfectly peaceful morning, there I am in the
depths of the peace. In a tempestuous morning, there am I also. According
to your temperament, you find Me more readily in different things. Find
Me in them and build. I am everywhere, therefore you need never lack Me.
Of course, I am within you, but do not limit Me. If I am within you, then
all is within you. This is something to experience, to know, against the
dictates of the mind. This is truth, and oneness is.
All right, you say,
you do accept it. Then bring it to life; let it live within you. I am not
just a fact, but a living, growing, glorious movement within which
vibrates every cell of your body and every atom of your intelligence. Do
not hide in the old pattern of deadness, of doing things without life.
Bring My life to whatever you do. I am here always; connect up with Me
within and then without. I am rendered null and void in you if you cling
to what has been. My dynamism is then quiescent in you. What use is a
life dedicated to old molds, however good, when I, the living God, the
omnipresent God, am not allowed to live in you? That is indeed putting
other images, deeply graven images, before Me. I am everywhere, but what
is that to you unless you live it, and how can you live it any time but
Now? Rejoice, and live with Me now."
