God is Spirit.
Spirit is Substance and Substance is supply. This is the keynote to a
realization of the more abundant life, to the demonstration of success in
financial matters. It is right that we should be successful, for
otherwise the Spirit is not expressed. The Divine cannot lack for
anything, and we should not lack for anything that makes life worth while
here on earth.
We are thinking of God as a universal and infinite Being, as perfect law, the immutable law of cause and effect; and in doing this, discarding the ancient idea of a huge person in the nature of Deity, we are undoubtedly losing something; losing a sense of personal contact with this invisible power and we are liable to think of God only as law, or as an Infinite It. Now an Infinite It is a very adequate thing in certain respects, but in other respects it is very inadequate. We could not derive much comfort, pleasure or joy from talking to the principle of chemical affinity (yet we do derive a great benefit from learning that such a law exists). Neither can we hope to get much satisfaction from thinking of God only as an Infinite It. Can We Talk to God? 1934 (p. 7.3)
On Peacefulness/Peace - In the silence of the soul’s communion with the Great Cause of All Being, into the stillness of the Absolute, into the secret place of the Most High, back of the din and the ceaseless roar of life, we shall find a resting place and a place of real spiritual power. Creative Mind and Success 1919 (p. 77.1)
