Faith is the road we tread when we take your
prayers to the principle of life (God) to have them
answered. Faith sometimes is the product of years. At
other times it comes instantly. Faith exalts us and by it we
seem enabled literally to move mountains, but in reality we are
lifted up into the perfect expression of life and by means of our
faith the mountain disappears. When we reach the height of
perfect faith, there will be no mountains in our way.
God's universe is governed by immortal laws and by Faith we are
led to understand them. Prayer strengthens faith. This
is its inherent value. It gives to some such great faith
that they are lifted to heights from which they behold the way to
the desired blessing.
We cannot alter principle by prayer or bring principle to
us. We live in principle; we live in abundance; we are in
the midst of plenty all the time and by Faith we lift ourselves up
to where we can see the bountiful supply provided for us.
Faith unlocks the secret place and its manifold blessings recorded
in the 91st Psalm. Therefore, with all thy getting, get
faith --faith that you are a son of a King who created all that
was created; that your Father desires you to have all the blessing
of his vast storehouse, the understanding of which will bring you
all His good and perfect gifts. If in want, know that you
have not understood the principle of supply and do not pray for
material things, but pray for Faith to lift you up to the
understanding of God's bounty, His limitless riches, and by Faith
you will enter the world of abundance where there is no lack.
There is ample material in the forests and mountains of earth
to build palaces for all the sons of God, and Faith can give you
everything that life can produce. Faith is the best friend
and traveling companion that man can have. Faith enables you
to know that God is the sould of the universe, that you are one
with God and may draw from this infinite source an unlimited
supply of all that you need. There is nothing Faith cannot
do for us. Have Faith in the fact that age is mesmerism;
that it is only a man-made lie. Have Faith that it is not
the will or pleasure of the Infinite for you to express
death. Have Faith in the power of the life thought; Faith
that youth is yours to have and to hold. But, with Faith,
use understanding and common sense. Do not eat like a madman
and expect Faith to give you the existence of a Saint.
There is no reason in this wide world, that just as you have by
your won industry secured the good things in life, you should be
forced to depart. Faith that death is not a part of life
will rob death of its power. If you have only enough Faith
so that your earthly existence will be like a tallow candle --only
burn so long and go out --it will be according to your
Faith. If you have Faith that you are connected with the
principle of life as the electric bulb is connected with the
dynamo, your life will be much longer. As your Faith, so is
your life.
This book is a distinct message to tell the world that life can
be prolonged; to give you Faith in the renewal of your thoughts
(your viewpoint of life), to put you in tune with the cell life
that is ever working to rebuild your body. By exchanging old
thoughts of age for new thoughts of youth, you and your cell life
will be able to do constructive team work and the results will be
increased strength, better health and added years, for the
three-score-year-and-ten habit will be broken and we will come
into a new conception of life.
Live! Live! Have Faith you can live; have Faith you will
live. Just before you drop to sleep say: As my mortal
body renews itself, so this night by subconscious mind sings to my
conscious mind all night songs of youth. I am bathed in
youth and all it represents. Do this daily as you eat and
bathe, and thus you will Live and Grow Young.
