Emmet Fox wrote: “The most important of all things to possess is Peace of Mind. There is absolutely nothing else in the world which is equal in value to that. Nothing else that life can offer is so important.”
Since this is true, why is it that it seems to be about the last thing that many people seek? They seek spiritually and mentally for everything else under the sun, but if they had everything else, and still lacked Peace of Mind, they would be miserable. Many people on in the same boat.
Emmet Fox states: “If anyone came to you with a billion dollars in one hand and Peace of Mind in the other, if you took the billion dollars, you would be the most foolish person on earth.
One time a college professor asked his students at the end of the year to make a list of what they desired to achieve. One student wrote a list of really big achievements he wants to make and handed it to the professor. When he read it, it drew a big “X” through the list and then wrote at the top of the page, “Peace of Mind.” The student was somewhat perplexed until the professor explained that Peace of Mind should be sought after first and foremost. Unless you have Peace of Mind, all the rest is not worth much.
Peace of Mind includes all good things. When you have Peace of Mind, even if the outer picture is unpleasant, it would no grief because when you have Peace of Mind, you are centered in God and this causes you to know that everything is bound to change for the better.
Peace of Mind is absolutely God’s greatest gift to you. You are wise to pray for Peace of Mind and practice being peaceful. Whenever you might feel fearful or anxious, just take a few deep breaths as you softly declare: “I now relax, let go, and let God. I am at peace. God is in charge and all is well.”
Very soon you will feel much better. Your mind will clear and you will experience new strength and energy. And, you’ll receive new guidance for achieving what is next important. – Lovingly, Rev. John

The Healing Word
God is the infinite source of the one power that is. Man is wired for contacting this power; channeled for its cleansing inflow. As he knows this, identifying himself with the Spirit of life, he opens the floodgates to Truth and sets in operation the divine law of spiritual healing. Positive, constructive thought keeps the Truth channels open for this free-flowing life of God. Negative, error thought raises barriers and obstructs the healing current. – Richard Lynch
The Prospering Word
Get into partnership with God and you will grow rich. You have a fortune to share. Find out the tremendous power and wisdom resident in your subconscious mind, and you can become inspired, blessed, and prospered in countless ways. You can become a great boon to mankind. Remember that your confidence, faith, and understanding of the laws of mind are translated into health, wealth, and success. – Dr. Joseph Murphy
Bytes of Wisdom. . .
Everyday ask yourself the question, “Do I want to experience Peace of Mind or do I want to experience Conflict?” – Gerald Jampolsky
To come into the consciousness of God, is to come into Peace. The more we are conscious of God, the more Peace we have. But a far more correct statement is, the more Peace we are. – W. Frederick Keeler
Forgiveness is an inner correction that lightens the heart. It is for our peace of mind first. Being at peace, we will now have peace to give to others, and this is the most permanent and valuable gift we can possibly give. – Gerald Jampolsky
To be at one with God is to be at peace… peace is to be found only within, and unless one finds it there he will never find it at all. Peace lies not in the external world. It lies within one’s own soul. – Ralph W. Trine
A Little Humor. . .
The ten-year-old boy was failing math. His parents tried everything to get him to do well in school, but nothing worked. Finally they enrolled him in a Catholic school. From his first day, the boy spent every night poring over books. When his first report card came, he had received an A in math.
“Son,” his father asked, “what made the difference in math class? The nuns? The textbooks?”
“Dad, I had never taken math seriously before,” the boy admitted. “But when I walked in and saw that guy nailed to the plus sign, I knew this place meant business!” – Scott Bihl
