If I should think it hard to send out blessings to my enemies, I remember the affirmation of the Greatest Teacher of all ages Who said, “Forgive until seventy times seven.”  I remember that when He, Himself, was reviled, reviled not in turn.  I remember that when His merciless enemies had nailed Him to the cross, had apparently crushed His fondest ambition, had scorned and reviled the Kingdom of which He had spoken, and had tortured Him as He hung on the cross, He uttered the immortal, lovable, constructive words which have rung throughout the centuries, and will continue to bless all mankind throughout eternity:  “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.”

So those who would try to block my way, curb my progress or put thorns in my crown are doing so “not knowing what they are doing.”  “Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.”  Instead of hurting me, they are sowing weed seeds, which shall bring forth a harvest of weeds and tares in their own lives, and not in mine.

I, therefore, do not wish them harm, nor think that they should feel the reaction.  I do not have to concern myself about the negative people in the world—­for the law takes care of them.

I shall always think constructive thoughts, harmonious thoughts and loving thoughts.  “My Subconscious Mind, I desire and command you to have peace, harmony and justice reign, and know that all things are now working together for the good of my would-be enemies and for myself.”

I relax (here pause and wait), take time for meditation (here pause and rest relaxed) and I become happy in the silence—­holding my thought of peace, harmony and justice reigning in the hearts of men everywhere—­and, as I relax and wait, I feel my vibrations rise.  I am resting at ease, in faith. (Pause.) I am perfectly calm and contented.  (Pause.) I am sending out love, peace and harmonious thoughts, and, as they go, love, peace and harmony will come to me.  These are now returning.  They enter my being and uplift my soul.

I am, therefore, sending out a strong current of spiritual blessings, with such a spirit of helpfulness, that I am getting back the same which I send out.  My harvest shall be peace, love, joy, harmony, justice and contentment, because I am sowing the seed of love, peace, harmony, joy, contentment and justice into the great subconscious soil of the universe.

“My Subconscious Mind, I desire and command you to have peace, harmony and justice reign everywhere throughout the world.”

I wait—­I rest—­I am relaxed—­I am at ease and filled with the spirit of harmony.  I wait.  I listen for the spirit within.  I feel and hear the voice of infinite love sending back into my consciousness these thoughts which I send out.

I know that my every constructive thought blasts away a thousand destructive ones.  Therefore, I think peace, joy, love, harmony and justice, and, as I utter these words slowly and prayerfully, I feel my vibration rising—­I experience ease of mind and peace of soul.  Harmony is now within and without.
