Under the Shadow of the Almighty - Florence Scovel Shinn




The following is an excerpt from The Game of Life and How to Play It by Florence Scovel Shinn.


Divinely Protected
Fear pictures vividly the disease or situation feared, and these pictures objectify, if not neutralized.

Happy is the mother who can say sincerely, that she puts her child in God's hands, and knows therefore, that he is divinely protected.

For example: A woman awoke suddenly, in the night, feeling her brother was in great danger. Instead of giving in to her fears, she commenced making statements of Truth, saying, "Man is a perfect idea in Divine Mind, and is always in his right place, therefore, my brother is in his right place, and is divinely protected."

The next day she found that her brother had been in close proximity to an explosion in a mine, but had miraculously escaped.


Under the Shadow of the Almighty
So man is his brother's keeper (in thought) and every man should know that the thing he loves dwells in "the secret place of the most high, and abides under the shadow of the Almighty."

"There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling."


Casting Out Fear
"Perfect love casteth out fear. He that feareth is not made perfect in love," and "Love is the fulfilling of the Law."
