As He continued to live closer and ever closer to God, He beheld all men as living inventions of God.

Thus - by arousing their souls' energy to such an extent that the physical became immersed in the healing life - He enabled the perfect man to come into manifestation.

In prayer we need to be deeply conscious that God is the almighty one, the supreme creator, the ruler of the Universe, that he is infinite and eternal; we need to know that God is the underlying, unchangeable truth, "with whom can be no variation, neither shadow that is cast by turning". God as principle is the absolute good expressed in all creation. When we know God and "worship him in spirit and truth" we recognize him as this great goodness, which is omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent, ready and willing to guide, to bless, and to uplift.
