Time of Reading At home, ... Avenue, 11:10 to 11:15 A. M. Eastern War Time. Baldwin, New York.
1. GC: Now you will have before you the body and enquiring mind of [3638] at home, ... Avenue, Baldwin, New York - who seeks a Mental and Spiritual Reading, especially regarding how to meet her physical state and what purpose to follow in life. You will give that information which will be most helpful to her at this time, and answer the questions she has submitted as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. In analyzing the physical and mental attitudes of the body here, [3538], we find that anxieties as to material things and conditions have had too great a stress put upon them by this body.
4. If there is the analyzing of self respecting the spiritual attitude the body should take respecting conditions of self and of those about the body, to be sure the body becomes discouraged.
5. When such information is first presented to the body, it may realize and declare "Why offer spiritual counsel, when I am so anxious about my physical being as well as those about me?" But who healeth thy diseases? To whom does the material world belong? Man or God? Whom do ye serve - thine own appetites, thine own desires, or God?
6. These should be thy first approach. For, as He has given, be not anxious wherewithal ye shall be clothed nor wherewithal ye shall be fed. For, the Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. When ye apply the spiritual life in thy relationships to others, there will be the supply. For, does He not clothe all nature? Are not the silver and gold His? Then act in that manner!
7. Begin by reading Exodus 19:5, and know that it is meant for thee. Then read the whole of Deuteronomy 30, and know that the counsel is being given to thee, and that ye have to choose each day, now, and every other day. Don't say within self that these are of no avail to thee, but use them.

8. For again and again He says, "Try me - see if I will not pour out to thee a blessing."
9. Do that. Then as ye study, know that ye are not only read but apply John 14, 15, 16, 17. These are not merely words, they are living truths. He came that ye might have life and have it more abundantly. He withholds no good thing from thee, if ye will only choose it, live it. Live it in thy speech to others.
10. Though the heavens fall, though the earth be broken up, His promises will remain - and He will not fail thee, if ye fail Him not.
11. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file
