Looking at the world today, we see individuals and groups attempting to exert their will over others, both aggressively and subtly. The effort to dominate is seen in government, politics, health care, environmental issues, and personal relationships, to name a few.
This mental energy called human willpower is a counterfeit of the divine will of God. It would hide the divine Principle and presence of God’s loving government of the universe, which maintains the balance, goodness, and harmony of all life. But since God is all-power, human will is powerless and cannot modify the fullness of our Father-Mother God’s love for all Her creation.
How comforting to rejoice in this divine message: “The Lord of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand” (Isaiah 14:24). In reality, only what God, Mind, thinks is actually unfolding, not what apparent mortal minds think or will. Only God’s holy purpose of goodness for everyone can come to fruition, because the divine Mind is supreme over all the universe.
