All religions of the world represent forms of belief, and
these beliefs are explained in many ways. The law of life is
belief. What do you believe about yourself, life, and the
universe? It is done unto you as you believe.
Belief is a thought in your mind, which causes the power
of your subconscious to be distributed into all phases
life according to your thinking habits. You must realize the
Bible is not talking about your belief in some ritual, ceremony,
form, institution, man, or formula. It is talking about belief
itself. The belief of your mind is simply the thought of your
mind. If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
MARK 9:23.
It is foolish to believe in something to hurt or harm you.
Remember, it is not the thing believed in that hurts or harms
you, but the belief or thought in your mind, which creates
the result. All your experiences, all your actions, and all the
events and circumstances of your life are but the reflections
and reactions to your own thought.

mind, and that if you can succeed in cleansing your mind of
these thoughts, you will get a healing. You, therefore, turn to

capacity to heal all conditions. As you dwell on these truths,
your fear will begin to dissolve, and the recollection of these
truths also corrects the erroneous beliefs.

and then you keep your mind off the difficulty until you feel
guided, after an interval, to pray again. While you are praying,
you absolutely refuse to give any power to the negative
conditions or to admit for a second that the healing will not
come. This attitude of mind brings about the harmonious
union of the conscious and subconscious mind, which releases.
