1 Your holiness reverses all the laws of the world. It is beyond every
restriction of time, space, distance, and limits of any kind. Your
holiness is totally unlimited in its power because it establishes you as
a Son of God, at one with the Mind of his Creator. Through your
holiness, the power of God is made manifest. Through your holiness the
power of God is made available. And there is nothing the power of God
cannot do.
2 Your holiness, then, can remove all pain, can end all sorrow, and can
solve all problems. It can do so in connection with yourself and with
anyone else. It is equal in its power to help anyone because it is equal
in its power to save anyone. If you are holy, so is everything God
created. You are holy because all things He created are holy. And all
things He created are holy because you are.
3 In today’s exercises, we will apply the power of your holiness to all
problems, difficulties, or suffering in any form that you happen to
think of in yourself or someone else. We will make no distinctions
because there are no distinctions.
4 In the four longer practice periods, each preferably to last a full
five minutes, repeat the idea for today, close your eyes, and then
search your mind for any sense of loss or unhappiness of any kind as you
see it. Try to make as little distinction as possible between a
situation that is difficult for you and one that is difficult for
someone else. Identify the situation specifically and also the name of
the person concerned. Use this form in applying the idea for today:
5 In the situation involving ______ in which I see myself, there
is nothing that my holiness cannot do.
In the situation involving ______ in which _____ sees himself,
there is nothing my holiness cannot do.
6 From time to time you may want to vary this procedure and add some
relevant thoughts of your own. You might like, for example, to include
thoughts such as:
7 There is nothing my holiness cannot do because
the power of God lies in it.
8 Introduce whatever variations appeal to you, but keep the exercises
focused on the theme “There is nothing my holiness cannot do.” The
purpose of today’s exercises is to begin to instill in you a sense that
you have dominion over all things because of what you are.
9 In the frequent shorter applications, apply the idea in its original
form unless a specific problem concerning you or someone else arises or
comes to mind. In that event, use the more specific form of application.
