LESSON 38.

There is nothing my holiness cannot do.

W-38.1. Your holiness reverses all the laws of the world. 2 It is beyond every restriction of time, space, distance and limits of any kind. 3 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.

W-38.2. Through your holiness the power of God is made manifest. 2 Through your holiness the power of God is made available. 3 And there is nothing the power of God cannot do. 4 Your holiness, then, can remove all pain, can end all sorrow, and can solve all problems. 5 It can do so in connection with yourself and with anyone else. 6 It is equal in its power to help anyone because it is equal in its power to save anyone.

W-38.3. If you are holy, so is everything God created. 2 You are holy because all things He created are holy. 3 And all things He created are holy because you are. 4 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 in someone else. 5 We will make no distinctions because there are no distinctions.

W-38.4. 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. 2 Try to make as little distinction as possible between a situation that is difficult for you, and one that is difficult for someone else. 3 Identify the situation specifically, and also the name of the person concerned. 4 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.

6 In the situation involving ___ in which ___ sees himself, there is nothing my holiness cannot do.

W-38.5. From time to time you may want to vary this procedure, and add some relevant thoughts of your own. 2 You might like, for example, to include thoughts such as:

3 There is nothing my holiness cannot do because the power of God lies in it.

4 Introduce whatever variations appeal to you, but keep the exercises focused on the theme, "There is nothing my holiness cannot do." 5 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.

W-38.6. 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. 2 In that event, use the more specific form in applying the idea to it.
