Careful Preparation
Care was used in preparing the garden soil in order to get
it into the proper condition. Here again the analogy to spiritual process is
true: We must remove from the creative medium of Mind all negatives. It must be
at peace. Everything must be removed that would obstruct the right development
of whatever good results we seek. When you are poised, calm, at peace, filled
with happy expectancy and serenely trusting in the fulfillment of the highest
good, you are ready to do your spiritual planting.
All summer long the warmth of the sun and the refreshment of
the gentle rains bring your garden through the various stages of growth to rich
maturity, which is the reason you planted it. Your spiritual garden, first
planted in the soil of emotional serenity, must be kept nourished with love and
watered with expectancy. Do not let any weeds of doubt or anxiety hinder its
progress. Give it daily attention, entirely free from worry or fear as to the
outcome. Remember, you can trust the soil to do its part if you do your part!

How to make it through
A broken heart is simply a heart that has a chance to become
stronger. It’s a heart that is more self-sufficient, more open to the truth,
and more capable of lasting love.
