February 20, 2026 – THE INLET AND THE OUTLET!
“Life is a ticket to the greatest show on earth.” ― Martin H. Fischer
“– then the Lord God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.” Genesis 2:7.
“In his right relation, man is the inlet and the outlet of an everywhere present life, substance, and intelligence. When his ‘I’ recognizes this fact and adjusts itself to the invisible expressions of the one Mind, man’s mind becomes harmonious; his life, vigorous and perpetual; his body, healthy.” Christian Healing, Charles Fillmore, 22.
“Every day God sends forth three powerful energies: One, from the sperm of the father into the mother, so growth may begin. Two, a birth from the womb of the ground, so male and female may spring into existence. Three, there’s a surge up from the surface into what is beyond dying, that the real beauty of creating can be recognized.” The Essential Rumi, Coleman Barks, et. al. 87 – 88.
“That is our purpose in life, to succeed in bringing forth God’s perfect idea of the perfect man.” Myrtle Fillmore, How To Let God Help You, 11.
“The substance of Buddha is mindfulness. Every time you practice conscious breathing, you are a living Buddha.” Thich Nhat Hanh, Living Buddha, Living Christ, 117.
“To pray spiritually really means to have a feeling that our arms are outstretched even when they are not physically outstretched, and that we have all the world in our arms and are sayin ‘Father, forgive them their sins. Father, open their eyes and their ears. Father, I pray that Thy love may shine upon them, that Thy grace may feed and sustain them.’” Joel Goldsmith, The Altitude of Prayer, 119-120.
“In the limestone of the walls are the remains of shellfish that swam here once, and perhaps . . . the gardener is content to plant his trees and not trouble himself as to who will lie in their shade.” James Dillet Freeman, Prayer the Master Key, 118.
“When you’re chewing on life’s gristle, Don’t grumble, give a whistle, And this’ll help things turn out for the best… And…always look on the bright side of life… Always look on the light side of life.” ― Monty Python’s Life of Brian.
“Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink, nor about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?” Matthew 6:25.
February 18, 2026 – AN INTEGRAL IDEA IN DIVINE MIND!
“Integrity has no need of rules.” ― Albert Camus.
“A righteous man who walks in his integrity— blessed are his sons after him!” Proverbs 20:7.
“If you would know the mystery of Being, see yourself in Being. Know yourself as an integral idea in Divine Mind, and all other ideas will recognize you as their fellow worker. Throw yourself out of the holy trinity, and you become an onlooker. Throw yourself into the trinity and you become its avenue for expression.” Christian Healing, Charles Fillmore, 20.
“The doubled end of the thread is not what goes through the eye of the needle. It’s the single-pointed, fined-down, thread end, not a big ego-beast with baggage.
But how can a camel be thinned to a thread? With the shears of practice, with doing things. And with help from the one who brings impossibilities to pass, who quiets willfulness, who gives sight to one blind from birth.” The Essential Rumi, Coleman Barks, et. al., 87.
“The time will come when we can draw forth from the universal mind-stuff just the elements we need, in their right proportion and relation, to maintain the proper balance in our whole organism. The time will come, I am confident, when we shall be able to draw chemical substance from the fourth dimensional realm down into our physical bodies.” Myrtle Fillmore, How To Let God Help You, 104.
“Mindfulness is the key. When you become aware of something, you begin to have enlightenment… When you look at a blue sky and are aware of it, the sky becomes real, and you become real. That is enlightenment, and enlightenment brings about true life and true happiness.” Thich Nhat Hanh, Living Buddha, Living Christ, 116-117.
“The spiritual students of the world have within their power the ability to change the world in this century into a heaven on earth. How? By prayer and meditation, by letting loose this ‘bread’ that they have stored up within them.” Joel Goldsmith, The Altitude of Prayer, 119.
“Life is not a thing of stones for stones, but a thing alive for things alive — for May flies and oine trees and hummingbirds, and you and me.” James Dillet Freeman, Prayer the Master Key, 117.
“Interplay and interaction are the integral parts of music – they’re as important as the notes.” ―Mahavishnu John McLaughlin.
“Show yourself in all respects a model of good deeds, and in your teaching show integrity, gravity,” Titus 2:7.
February 11,2026 – GOD-MIND!
“Mind is god and god is Mind.” ― Anaxagoras
.
“For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.” Romans 8:5-6.
“A key to God-Mind is with everyone — it is the action of the individual mind… Study your own mind, and through it you will find God-Mind… you will also understand why the impulse for higher things keeps welling up within your soul. God-Mind is living, acting thoughts. God-Mind is thinking in you.” Christian Healing, Charles Fillmore, 19.
“There is a source they come from, and a fountain inside here. Be generous. Be grateful. Confess when you’re not. We can’t know what the divine intelligence has in mind! Who am I, standing in the midst of this thought-traffic?” The Essential Rumi, Coleman Barks, et. al., 84.
“Do not be concerned if you do not always get from your study and your prayers the results that your senses take cognizance of. Your spiritual awakening is the important thing. It will increase your consciousness of your unity with God Mind and will give you greater freedom of expression through the various centers of consciousness in your body.” Myrtle Fillmore, How To Let God Help You, 10.
“When you say ‘I take refuge in the Dharma’ (law), you are expressing confidence in the Dharma. You see the Dharma as something positive, and you want to orient yourself toward it. That is devotion. When you apply the Dharma in your daily life, that is transformational practice.” Thich Nhat Hanh, Living Buddha, Living Christ, 116.
“Release God into the world, but let us be sure we are not directing God to some friend’s corner. Loose God. Release Him into this world that He may bless and redeem. In saving the world, we know that we are saved individually, for if this world goes, we go with it.” Joel Goldsmith, The Altitude of Prayer, 119.
“Life is for us to be alive in… Life is to grow a garden in. A garden lives. A garden grows. A garden changes a bare patch of land into a place of trees and flowers and grass and fountains splashing into pools and singing birds and buzzing insects.” James Dillet Freeman, Prayer the Master Key, 117.
“It is reasonable to believe in the existence of a third level of mind, a mental component of the universe. If we believe in this … and call it God, then we can say that we are small pieces of God’s mental apparatus.” ― Freeman Dyson (physicist).
“When I look at thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars which thou hast established; what is man that thou art mindful of him, and the son of man that thou dost care for him? Yet thou hast made him little less than God, and dost crown him with glory and honor.” Psalm 8:3-5.
February 4, 2026 – THE SCIENCE OF TRUTH!
“It’s no wonder that truth is stranger than fiction. Fiction has to make sense.” ― Mark Twain.
“Behold, you desire truth in the inward being; therefore teach me wisdom in my secret heart.” Psalm 51:6.
“The Science of Truth is God thinking out creation. God is the original Mind in which all real ideas exist. The one original Mind creates by thought… An understanding of the Logos (thought expressed) reveals to us the law under which all things are brought forth — the law of mind action. Creation takes place through the operation of the Logos. God is thinking the universe into manifestation right now.” Christian Healing, Charles Fillmore, 18.
“We seem to be sitting still, but we’re actually moving, and the fantasies of phenomena are sliding through us like ideas through curtains. They go to the well of deep love within each of us. They fill their jars there, and they leave.” The Essential Rumi, Coleman Barks, et. al., 83-4.
“WE ARE STUDYING spiritual science to get a broader conception of God, rather than holding to the view that He is a personal being with parts like man, a being subject to change and capable of varying moods. Though personal to each one of us, God is IT, neither male nor female, but Principle. God is not a cold, senseless principle like that of mathematics, but the Principle of life, love, and Intelligence.” Myrtle Fillmore, How To Let God Help You, 19.
“Pronouncing words does have an effect. When you say, ‘I am determined to study medicine,’ that already has an impact on your life, even before you apply to medical school. You want to do it, and because of your willingness and desire, you will find a way to go to school.” Thich Nhat Hanh, Living Buddha, Living Christ, 116.
“It (prayer) does not invite them to The Infinite Way: it merely says, ‘Open your hearts and souls to the reign of the Christ, to the realization of spiritual harmony, to the ‘meat’ that we have found within us. Open the eyes of this world to the springs of living waters within.’” Joel Goldsmith, The Altitude of Prayer, 119.
“Nothing can be possessed. We have the use of things, but we never have the possession of them, however many titles to them we may deposit with the recorder of deeds, however many locks and strong boxes we may use for hiding them… Everything was the gift of life. And life asks it back. According to the greatest teacher of all, life asks it back with interest; life expects it to have grown under our care.” James Dillet Freeman, Prayer the Master Key, 117.
“A scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.” ― Max Planck.
“But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for such the Father seeks to worship him.” John 4:23.
Healing, Health & Wholeness are our focus for this New Happy Year (2026). Healing of our physical, mental, and emotional bodies, our relationships with others and ourselves, our families and friends, our finances; all areas of our individual and collective life and being are ripe for healing: to realize our health and wholeness, here and now!
Simply put: Wholeness is our natural state of being, one with God and one with all that is; Health is one of the ways it expresses through us when we are in balance with what is; Healing is the process where we return to our natural state when we are out of balance.
Christian Healing, by Charles Fillmore, will be our basic text for this year’s weekly prayer letters. First published in 1909, this book lays out a series of “…lessons. They are not merely to be read; they are to be studied and applied as one studies and applies mathematical rules.” (from the preface.)
For February we are sharing from Lesson 2: Being’s Perfect Idea.
Our weekly prayer letters are exploring the principles discussed in each chapter and continue to provide related quotes from relevant writers and readings including from: How to Let God Help You, (from the writings of Myrtle Fillmore). Other regular resources include Bible quotes, The Essential Rumi, Thich Nhat Hanh, Joel Goldsmith and James Dillet Freeman.
Thank you for accompanying us on this journey of self-realization and discovery of our Divine potential!
Please affirm with us: “I am the image and likeness of God, in whom is my perfect pattern & potential for Healing, Health and Wholeness!”
Thank you God, thank you God, thank you God!
For so it is and so it shall be, Amen!

January 28, 2026 – PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY!
“I wish not merely to be called Christian, but also to be Christian.” ― Saint Ignatius
“…let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the Lord who practice steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth; for in these things I delight, says the Lord.” Jeremiah 9:24.
“The real of the universe is held in the mind of Being as ideas of life, love, substance, intelligence, Truth, and so forth. These ideas may be combined in a multitude of ways, producing infinite variety in the realm of forms. There is a right combination, which constitutes the divine order, the kingdom of heaven on earth. This right relation of ideas and the science of right thought is practical Christianity.” Christian Healing, Charles Fillmore, 14.
“It’s not always a blind man who falls in a pit. Sometimes it’s one who can see. A holy one does sometimes fall, but by that tribulation, he or she ascends, escapes many illusions, escapes conventional religion, escapes being so bound to phenomena.” The Essential Rumi, Coleman Barks, et. al., 83.
“As you change your thinking and bring it into line with Truth principles, a transformation will take place in your consciousness. Your mind will become keen, awake, alert, illumined, and your body temple will be filled with new life. You will be inspired with new and practical ideas that will enable you to succeed in a larger way.” Myrtle Fillmore, How To Let God Help You, 18.
“In every religious tradition there is devotional practice and a transformational practice. Devotion means relying more on your self and the path you are following… You enter the path of transformation when you begin to practice the things you pronounce.” Thich Nhat Hanh, Living Buddha, Living Christ, 115 -116.
“We have seen this principle in operation in The Infinite Way… the prayer that opens consciousness with no condemnation and invites the world to find spiritual peace in prayer and meditation.” Joel Goldsmith, The Altitude of Prayer, 118.
“I said to the Master, ‘Tell me about things. Is it wrong to pray for things?’ The Master said, ‘It is not wrong to pray for things. If prayer is right, then there is no aspect of living that we should not pray about. Pray about things, and you will find that you have the things you need, and you have also the attitude toward things you need.’” James Dillet Freeman, Prayer the Master Key, 117.
“Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous conversion – it is a daily process whereby you grow to be more and more like Christ.” ― Billy Graham.
“So Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul; and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church, and taught a large company of people; and in Antioch the disciples were for the first time called Christians.” Acts 11:25-26.
January 21,2026 – DIVINE IDEAS!
“Human history in essence is the history of ideas.” ― H. G. Wells
“Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.” Philippians 4:8.
“Divine ideas are man’s inheritance; they are pregnant with all possibility, because ideas are the foundation and cause of all that man desires… To make life appear on the visible plane, we have but to open our mind and our thoughts to the divine idea of life and activity.” Talks on Truth, Charles Fillmore, 13.
“Never ignore those intuitions. When you feel some slight repugnance about doing something, listen to it. These premonitions come from God.” The Essential Rumi, Coleman Barks, et. al., 83.
“So, by finding the all-providing love of God within your own soul, you become a magnet to attract manifest supply to yourself. You become a magnet to attract divine ideas, and your innate wisdom reveals to you how to use these ideas to the best advantage. Your steps are being guided to whatever environment is best for you at this time.” Myrtle Fillmore, How To Let God Help You, 72.
“If we meditate together s a family, a community, a city, and a nation, we will be able to identify the causes of our suffering and find ways out.” Thich Nhat Hanh, Living Buddha, Living Christ, 114.
“In one way or another, persons all over the world are being led to the spiritual life.” Joel Goldsmith, The Altitude of Prayer, 118.
“The waves of Your thought roll, roll in our mind. The winds of Your will blow, blow through our heart. They will carry us to far shores and over the trackless deeps. But they carry us to a fulfillment and a consummation greater even than our loveliest dream.” James Dillet Freeman, Prayer the Master Key, 116.
“If you are an American, you must allow all ideas to circulate freely in your community, not merely your own.” ― Kurt Vonnegut.
“Let no one deceive himself. If any one among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.” 1 Corinthians 3:18.
January 14, 2026 – PRIMAL CAUSE!
“Truth never damages a cause that is just.” ― Mahatma Gandhi
“Shower, O heavens, from above, and let the skies rain down righteousness; let the earth open, that salvation may sprout forth, and let it cause righteousness to spring up also; I the Lord have created it.” Isaiah 45:8.
“The central proposition in the inspiration of Spirit is that God, or primal Cause, is good.” Talks on Truth, Charles Fillmore, 10.
“Soul of my soul of the soul of a hundred universes, be water in the now-river, so jasmine flowers will lift on the brim, and someone far off can notice the flower-colors and know there’s water here.” The Essential Rumi, Coleman Barks, et. al., 82.
“‘God is love’ (1 Jn. 4:8). Love, then, is Creator of all that is real. That which is not of love and by love is not real. God is Truth. So, Truth is Creator of all that is real, and that which is not of Truth and by Truth is not real. God is life. Therefore life is the great Creator and Cause of all that is real, and that which is not of life and by life is not real.” Myrtle Fillmore, How To Let God Help You, 30.
“For a future to be possible, I urge you to study and practice the best values of your religious tradition and to share them with young people in ways they can understand.” Thich Nhat Hanh, Living Buddha, Living Christ, 114.
“We begin (our prayer) practice in our home, widening the circle to include our friends and more distant relatives. As we begin to witness the fruitage of what we are doing, we reach further until we are including all mankind in our prayer.” Joel Goldsmith, The Altitude of Prayer, 118.
“The seas of God come thundering over the reefs of space and cliffs of time. The seas of God come thundering at the seawalls our heart has raised, thundering at the gates of thought. We must open the gates and let the great seas in. For this is the water of life.” James Dillet Freeman, Prayer the Master Key, 115.
“The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.” ― Bertrand Russell.
“Praise the Lord! I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart, in the company of the upright, in the congregation. Great are the works of the Lord, studied by all who have pleasure in them. Full of honor and majesty is his work, and his righteousness endures for ever. He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered; the Lord is gracious and merciful.” Psalm 111:1-4.
January 7, 2026 – THE ALMIGHTY!
“Appearance is something absolute, but reality is not that way everything is interdependent, not absolute.” ― Dalai Lama
“‘I am the Alpha and the Omega,’ says the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:8.
“The starting point in spiritual realization is a right understanding of that One designated as the Almighty… The truth that God is the Father of man does away with the oft proclaimed presumption that it is impossible for the finite to understand the Infinite. God must be in His universe as everywhere intelligent power; otherwise it would fall to pieces.” Talks on Truth, Charles Fillmore, 8.
“A certain rich man was accustomed to honor a sufi by giving him pieces of silver. ‘Would you like one piece of silver now, O Lord of my Spirit, or three at breakfast tomorrow morning?’ The Sufi answered, ‘I love the half a coin that I have already in my hand from yesterday more that the promise of a whole one today, or the promise of a hundred tomorrow. A sufi is the child of this moment.’” The Essential Rumi, Coleman Barks, et. al., 81-82.
“You are Almighty God’s useful and prosperous child. I bid you go in peace. In Jesus’ name you are healed. Amen.” Myrtle Fillmore, How To Let God Help You, 191.
“No single tradition monopolizes the truth. We must glean the best values of all traditions and work together to remove the tensions between traditions in order to give peace a chance.” Thich Nhat Hanh, Living Buddha, Living Christ, 114.
“Whether it is a fistfight, a lawsuit, or an international war, as long as we sit in judgment the warfare will continue. All this will end when the judgement ends and when we are able to say, ‘I may have erred. the other side may have erred, but with God’s grace, there will be no more erring, no more mistakes. There will be peace on earth as there is in heaven. There will be peace in my heart. There will be peace in your heart.’” Joel Goldsmith, The Altitude of Prayer, 118.
“Separated from the sea we are soon no more that an empty shell on a windy dune. But the sea comes to the conch of our soul, singing the old songs, the ancient ageless music, though to our ears the sounds seem ever a new and startling truth.” James Dillet Freeman, Prayer the Master Key, 115.
“I love and respect all religions and philosophies. I see how they get formed, how they grow up, and how powerful they are. But for me to believe in a specific god – no. Because what I believe is that the infinite, the absolute, is a living being and the only one living being that really exists.” ― Don Miguel Ruiz.
“I said, ‘Let days speak, and many years teach wisdom.’ But it is the spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty, that makes him understand.” Job 32:7-8.
