The Application of the Story

     But to bring this story down to our own experience – for it is a lesson for everyone for all time – we live in the midst of eternal good, but it can only be to us what we believe it to be. We are at the mouth of the river, but we must let down our buckets if we wish them to be filled with the pure living waters of Reality.
     We are surrounded by a Spirit of living Intelligence, and eternal givingness, love, goodness and power, that wishes to express Itself through us. There is Divine Urge within, ever pushing us forward to the goal. We are also surrounded by an immutable Law of cause and effect, and because of our divine individuality and the necessity of experience in order to come to a realization of what, and who, we are, we are subject to the causes which we have set into motion. All is love and yet all is law. Both love and law are perfect and we, as individuals, can experience only what we really believe and act upon.
