Will Power

Most people becomes extremely nervous or tense when they are trying to accomplish something that means a great deal to them.

Anxious, nervous actions do not draw the power of God, but continous calm, powerful use of the will shakes the forces of creation

and brings a response from the Infinite. The germ of success in whatever you want to accomplish is in your will power.

Will that has been badly battered by difficulties becomes temporarily paralyzed. The resolute man who says,

"my body may be broken but my need of will power remains unbowed," demonstrates the greatest

expressions of will.

Will power is what makes you divine. When you give up using that will, you become a mortal man. Many people say we

should not exercise our will to change conditions, lest we interfere with God's plan. But why would God give us will if we are not

to use it? I once met a fanatical man who said he did not believe in using will power because it developed the ego.

"You are using a lot of will now to resist me!" l replied. "You are using it to talk, and you are obliged to use your will to stand,

or walk, or eat, or go to the movies, or even to go to sleep. You will everything you do. Without will power, you would be a

mechanical man." Non use of the will is not what Jesus meant when He said: "Not as l will, but as Thou will,

" He was demonstrating that man must learn to bend his will, which is governed by desires, to the will of God.

Therefore right prayer, when it is persistent, is will.
