August 27, 2013 - False Humility

“The glory of my Father is my own"

Let not a "false humility" hide our light! So often we believe that we are not worthy to accept our divine nature as the image and likeness of God. I know that negative instances from my past tend to recur in thought, provoked by the most tenuous connection. A teacher's scorn, a friend's put-down, my own disappointment in myself -- these things seem to linger, arguing that I couldn't possibly be good enough to accept myself as a joint heir with Jesus.  But with every affirmation of Truth, with every revelation of divine Mind, I will remind myself once again that I Am That I Am.

Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“The Divine Being must be reflected by man,--else man is not the image and likeness of the patient, tender, and true, the One 'altogether lovely;' but to understand God is the work of eternity, and demands absolute consecration of thought, energy, and desire.”
