You have not a student that the advice you write would be as fitted for, as me, at least it was just the thing, and just what I am trying to do, especially just now, to be strong in the power of this might, and trying to "keep on the armor". But I confess I some way get of my "Watch" and if I do, I am soon buried in darknessEph 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Eph 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. , (seemingly,) How true that the Spirit is willing but the flesh weakMatt 26:41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. ; again I needed and was trying to do just what you wrote. I will. The armor will shall be on, and the sword of the spirit in constant useEph 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Eph 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Eph 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Eph 6:14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; Eph 6:15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Eph 6:16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. Eph 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: , and I on my watch like a true soldier at his post. Mrs. Eddy I am afraid or at least hardly think you know all I have had to contend with. I know I ought to be an instantaneous healer, and within a very few days have drifted into the bright light just a little. I shall I will accomplish it, with the help of God, and wipe out of my path anything which may come in my way. I can see it and feel it and know that one word are on thought from me ought to heal instantly. If I could retire from all else in the world, I would accomplish it just as sure as the sun shines. I have an idea just what I must do, and must do my work just as it is now laid before me, not as I think I would like to have it, but just as it is now. I want very much to have my wife go into your next class and how kind and thoughtful it is in you to again mention it. She I know feels more interested and if anything that is in my power will induce her to go it shall be. If she can see the light that is Life and I know she can I will feel so happy, and I do think she wants to. I have my plans all in mind how to do, as I grow, and how to conduct my business if I, or when I get deep into ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science. All the business part of everything, office or house I shall step out of. I dont Corrected: don’t want to see a bill presented or have any care in a business, financial or house hold Corrected: household way. In my office I shall either have my wife, or some competent person see all patients first, make any arrangements & price with them, and not me, &c I have my plans all made how I shall manage, and after I demonstrate the Truth as someone must, then possibly I shall venture to lecture and teach wholly. I have not the interest in teaching that I may have when I show the Truth to the people. Somebody must do it. It is just what is wanted now. I am in hopes to have a class however commencing Monday April 6, it will help me out some, and perhaps it will be my only class for the present, I want to heal instantly enough to convince the people that what we say is true, and that your discoveries are discoveries of the Truth and not what the great mass are trying to make them. The spirit is willingMatt 26:41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. Mrs. Eddy and trying so hard, that I feel that it may be, as it ought to be, and as we want it. I know by my little experience, how hard you have tried, and possibly how many things you have had to contend with. I see it now Mrs. Eddy. The exchange of Mortal thought (unconsciously) in the line of evil and error is what does the mischief and our constant and honest "Watch" in the work is our only safety. I am satisfied that any bad spot in ourselves is a begging invitation for more of the same kind from without ourselves. Living in the flesh without the "Watch" is but a log drifting with the tide, sure to drift in to muddy water, at least some of the time, and at last to ferial distructionCorrected: destruction, (in belief.) Telegraphing without wires is the exchange of thought consciously, living in the flesh without the "Watch" is the exchange of thought unconsciously. Now I will close, feeling that I have already taken too much of your valuable and needed time, but you are the one anxious to see one instantaneous healer and will be glad to see that at least I am headed in the right direction.
