"I and my Father are One" is a powerful spiritual fact in metaphysical
healing. Because God and you are 'one in quality" (S&H 361:15-16)
you can entertain no concept of life that can become in any way discordant. Indeed this divine sense of coexistence means that you can experience nothing less than God's own sense of Life, which is perpetual bliss, even "the higher range of infinite goodness". The indivisibility of the infinite is the guarantee of the self same quality of Life for God and you. These words tell us also that the infinite contents of the one and only Life cannot be divided into portions, a portion for you and a portion for each of mankind, - a portion of strength, a portion of joy, a portion of abundance. No, not so! The indivisibility of the infinite forbids any sense of apportioning. The prodigal got into trouble when he said to his father, "Father, give me the portion of the goods that falleth to me."
