   1  mortal existence--could not by simulating deific power
     invert the divine creation, and afterwards recreate per-
   3  sons or things upon its own plane, since noth-

    God's thoughts
    are spiritual
    realities

     ing exists beyond the range of all-inclusive
     infinity, in which and of which God is the
   6  sole creator. Mind, joyous in strength, dwells in the
     realm of Mind. Mind's infinite ideas run and dis-
     port themselves. In humility they climb the heights of
   9  holiness.


         Moral courage is "the lion of the tribe of Juda," the
     king of the mental realm. Free and fearless it roams in
  12  the forest. Undisturbed it lies in the open

    Qualities
    of thought

     field, or rests in "green pastures, . . . beside
     the still waters." In the figurative transmission from the
  15  divine thought to the human, diligence, promptness, and
     perseverance are likened to "the cattle upon a thousand
     hills." They carry the baggage of stern resolve, and
  18  keep pace with highest purpose. Tenderness accompa-
     nies all the might imparted by Spirit. The individ-
     uality created by God is not carnivorous, as witness the
  21  millennial estate pictured by Isaiah:--
          The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb,
          And the leopard shall lie down with the kid;
  24       And the calf and the young lion, and the fatling together;
          And a little child shall lead them.


         Understanding the control which Love held over all,
  27  Daniel felt safe in the lions' den, and Paul proved the
     viper to be harmless. [[[All of God's creatures,

    Creatures of
    God useful

     moving in the harmony of Science, are harm-
  30  less, useful, indestructible.]]] A realization of this grand
     verity was a source of strength to the ancient worthies.
