“You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free” (Jn. 8:32). This is the answer to the desire in your heart and soul for freedom.

No matter what you may feel yourself to be in bondage to, perfect freedom can be yours. This freedom comes to you through your greater understanding of Truth, for freedom begins within you. If you feel bound or have a sense of inferiority in some respect, begin to set yourself free by lifting your thoughts about yourself. You cannot think the truth about yourself and at the same time be fearful or unhappy.

The truth about you is that you are God's beloved child, created in God's image and likeness. In God you live, move, and have your being. Instead of being a frail, human creature, living in an uncertain world, you are in reality a spiritual being, living in a spiritual world, governed by spiritual ideas. There are no limitations on God; therefore, there are no limitations on you. In your true Godlikeness you are free, glorious, inspired, and inspiring.

Prayer is God's gift to you. Through prayer you can draw strength and power. Through prayer you will learn that you have undreamed-of capacities, and you will learn how to develop them. Pray with faith; then act with confidence in the realization of your Godlikeness.

The following is Silent Unity's blessing to you. We would like for you to join us in realizing its truths. It is true for you; it is true for anyone you wish to help.

We see you filled with new confidence in God and in yourself as God's beloved child. Any mistakes of yesterday are forgiven and forgotten; any fears and apprehensions about the future disappear. You are a new person, a confident person, a successful person.

Stronger in faith than ever before, you know that God is with you, that in God you live, move, and have your being. Where before you doubted your ability, you now place your faith in God's ability to do all things through you. God cannot fail, so you cannot fail.

Today you face life fearlessly. You express a happy, confident spirit. You meet all persons in a spirit of love and understanding. You handle every challenge with wisdom and discernment. Those whom you contact are inspired to new faith because they see in you the very spirit of God in expression.

You are unfettered and unbound, triumphant, glorious, splendid, free!

Culmination
By James Dillet Freeman

Though you may often seem but small,
Hardly mattering at all,
For eons life has labored to
Culminate at last in you,
And beyond imaginings
Out of you the future springs.
You! of all that's been before
The culmination and yet more,
Life's wave at its crest and then
Life's wave setting out again.
So celebrate yourself! You are
Uniquely you and singular.
The universe with one vast voice
"Child, in yourself rejoice!"
