There is a peace at the center of your being -- a peace that can be felt throughout the day and in the cool of the evening when you have turned from your labor and the first star shines in the soft light of the sky. It broods over the earth quietly, tenderly, as a mother watches over her child. – Ernest Holmes "Practical Wisdom"
The arrogant have not perceived the simplicity of faith, but the pure in heart see God. The farmer has seen the Heavenly Host in his fields. The child has frolicked with Him at play. The mother has clasped Him to her breast and the fond lover has seen Him in the eyes of his beloved. We look too far away for Reality. – Ernest Holmes Religious Science
Saturday Treatment - I Embrace the Nurture of the Universal Maternal
I recognize both the masculine and feminine nature of the Universal Spirit. This one Absolute Love/Intelligence must include both creativity and nurturing in Its continual expression as the potential and manifest Universe which eternally rises from Spirit and is eternally contained in Spirit's embrace. As I think on this idea, I see clearly I am a child of the Universe inseparable from It also creative and nurturing in my own nature. Today, respecting my creative paternal self, I also embrace my nurturing maternal self and discover this wonderous dual natured Unity throughout all existence.
I discover within myself profound caring for all that is and a will to add blessings to my world. As I dedicate this moment to my own maternal nurturing nature all aspects of my life prosper for me and by means of me. The spiritual good of God dominates my attention until it becomes my sole interest. Immediately that good appears for me in delightful ways through all the people, places, and things I encounter. Life continually holds my interest. I nurture my interest and enjoy new and fulfilling ways to express my creative nature. I give my best and Spirit brings my loving people. I am grateful and Spirit nurtures me with health and vitality as It establishes me in perfect financial freedom.
Now, I can say with the Psalmist, "My cup overflows." I embrace the nurture of the Universal Maternal which surrounds, enfolds, and uplifts me. And so, it is.

“First you ask definitely for
direction, then it will enter your consciousness as a definite thought; then in
your turn you give it back the thought and it will give you back the thing. It
answers every question, solves every problem; it is the solution to every
difficulty. It is like the sunlight of eternal truth bursting through the
clouds of obscurity and bathing the whole world in glory. It is the absolute
that you are dealing with and nothing else.” - Ernest Holmes
