Divine Order and the Unity Principles (3)
Human beings create their experiences with their thinking.
That statement is Unity Principle #3. Our thoughts create our reality. The principle goes by many names: Law of Mind Action, Law of Attraction, Power of (Positive/Negative) Thinking. It’s the basis of The Secret, which was such a hit 5 years ago.
What does it have to do with Divine Order?
Not only are we God’s creations. We are God’s expressions. Through our thoughts, words, feelings, and behaviors we are able to express God’s creation continuously. In fact, as we express our Be-ing, we co-create again and again and again with God. That’s Divine Order, the harmonious arrangement of original creation — expression — continuous co-creation.
Rev. Ellen Debenport expresses this with beautiful human simplicity in her book, The Five Principles: “My personal belief is that we come into human form largely to play with Principle Three, to create our experience through thoughts and feelings,. I picture a soul group lanning its next human lives from the Other Side, probably swearing that this time we will remember our divine power, this time we will remain in constant contact with God within, this time we will create consciously just what we need and want. Our rediscovery of Principle Three once on Earth reminds us of that intention.”
I’m smiling as I think that entire “soul group” process–whether it’s as Ellen sees it or some way different–is clear evidence of the Divine Order.
Ernest Holmes, founder of Science of Mind, says: “Even God can give you nothing until you make up your mind about what you expect.”
How clearly that states that we–and our expectations–are part of the Divine Order.
