Trust in the Father's love

The consciousness of the victory of spirit in and over matter is at first a faith-trust founded on the teachings of religion and later a faith-trust of personal experience. The soul is assured and confirmed, day by day, in the realities of the Father’s love and the things of the spirit because they are increasingly validated in the daily experience of human living.Faith becomes trust, and trust becomes a living reality in the experience of each soul that steadfastly seeks and knows God. The Father responds to all those who, by faith, trust in Him. All such faith-filled trust brings eternal reward, but the rewards of trusting God are never mere material or temporal; they are spiritual and eternal, always realized within the personal soul-experience of each believing child of God.The Father yearns for the souls of all His children, but His efforts are always constrained by His gift of free will. God never forces His love on His children, nor does He compel their trust in Him. God trusts you with your own destiny. When you choose to trust Him with your faith, you open the door to a rich and fulfilling relationship that transcends all human experience.

The Assurance of Divine Guidance
Man's greatest adventure in the flesh consists in the well-balanced and sane effort to advance the borders of self-consciousness out through the dim realms of embryonic soul-consciousness in a wholehearted effort to attain the borderland of spirit-consciousness—contact with the divine presence. Such an experience constitutes God-consciousness, an experience mightily confirmed by the indwelling spirit of God's presence, the Thought Adjuster.Faith in God, trust in the divine goodness, and the acknowledgment of the rightness of God’s plans are all fundamental to the realization of divine guidance. Trust is not just belief in God's existence; it is the absolute conviction of the divine goodness and the eternal certainty of His leadership. A trusting soul is free from fear and full of quiet confidence, knowing that God’s purpose shall unfold, no matter how uncertain or difficult the human path may seem.In the realm of faith and trust, man finds the strength to overcome weakness, to triumph over adversity, and to walk in the joy and light of spiritual understanding. Trusting God involves believing that His will is the best path, even when it appears different from our own wishes or understanding. It means committing your life and destiny into the hands of infinite love and infinite wisdom, trusting that every moment of struggle, growth, and suffering will ultimately contribute to the realization of the divine plan.
