[Marsha's thoughts]
Today's review is just what I need to open my sight in loving ways to a construction situation outside my gallery. "They" are getting ready to tear up the street in order to repair a falling wall underneath said street. They have told me all the horrible things that could go wrong, how they have no idea what they'll find once they get under there, and on and on. So applying this review to the situation, I start with no condemnation or blame because this work wasn't done earlier. I am holding to the fact that everything happens at the correct time and this is happening now. And as God is the strength in which I trust, I don't have to search for a stronghold to keep me from blame and fear in this situation. Everything is contained within divine order and I trust in that principle to guide and guard everyone. I see that there is nothing to fear in this or any situation. Even though there are variables which depend on human judgment, I know that everyone's actions are a part of this divine order and that they will be listening to intuition rather than forging ahead with blind determination. And by my own listening, I will know what objects to move in the gallery. Although I cannot be given assurance by mortal minds that the jackhammers and concrete cutters and rebuilding of underground walls will not cause damaging vibrations, I can be certain that I will know what to do in any given situation. As I am sustained by the Love which is God, I know that everyone else is, too, as they are maintained within that same Love. Today I've been seeing these workmen in the light of Love, knowing that they are expressing the wisdom of the Ages, and already I'm seeing Love reflected in Love. A simple act of turning around their truck, so the sawdust from the cutting of boards would not be dropped in front of my entry -- that's enough to assure me that Love is here and all is well.
Mary Baker Eddy correlative quote:
"Progress takes off human shackles. The finite must yield to the infinite. Advancing to a higher plane of action, thought rises from the material sense to the spiritual, from the scholastic to the inspirational, and from the mortal to the immortal. Love, the divine Principle, is the Father and Mother of the universe, including man."

Not only will all be well, but it will be even BETTER than before!
