I See God in Everyone 
            Ernest Holmes 
            
          ...Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.  Matthew 22:39 
          All the great scriptures have announced this transcendent  truth: Give, and to you shall be given.   Every act carries with it a consequence, bringing the result of the  action back to the self. Emerson called it the law of compensation, and Jesus  proclaimed the same law, saying that as we sow, so shall we reap. 
          We also have been admonished not to forget ourselves, but at  the same time to remember everyone else. That is, we are to view ourselves each  in the other and behold God in all. When we realize love as the great harmony,  then we shall all sing the praise of God.  
          I perceive the action and harmony of God in, back of, and  through all things and all people. The Spirit is never separated from any  person or event; It unites each to Itself, vitalizing each with the energy of  Its own being. 
          Over all, in all, and through all is the inevitable seed of  perfection which proclaims itself in all my relationships as harmony and joy  and love. This seed is at the center of my being, and I am an instrument of its  perfection. I recognize that I as well as others have a union with God which is  perfect and complete and can manifest only as harmonious action.

        “One Power”—An Anthem for the New Humanity 
          Science of Mind magazine’s theme for August 2012, “Shapes of Oneness,” is beautifully expressed  in the lyrics of the song “One Power,” by New Thought composer Daniel Nahmod. “One  Power,” one of Nahmod’s best-known compositions, was written in  2000 and  released in 2002 on his CD of the same name. “I was raised in a kosher Jewish  home,” Nahmod says, “but I was never comfortable with the exclusion and  exclusivity inherent in traditional religion. ‘One Power’ took nearly two weeks  to compose, and represents my personal belief that kindness, compassion,  connection—love—is at the heart of  all religion, all faith, all humanity, all life.  I’ve never been very interested in what people  call their ‘God.’ I’ve always been far more interested in how they treat  themselves and how they treat others. In fact, I call my ‘Sacred Love’ hymns  ‘Hymns for Humanity,’ for my intention that all the world—all people, all  cultures, all faiths—might one day come together to pray in song to the same  sacred source. ‘One Power’ is evidently something that I came to share with  humanity, my own personal mission and vision and message...It’s a song that I’ll  sing for anyone, anywhere, as long as I am able.” 
          Nahmod’s  extraordinary, award-winning music is performed in New Thought centers as well  as in houses of worship of numerous other denominations around the world. He  has performed his beloved inspirational songs for over a million people representing  nearly all of the world’s major faiths. Nahmod’s 15 CDs have sold nearly  100,000 copies,  and his music has been heard on NBC, FOX, MTV, CNN, PBS, and  many other television networks. In addition, countless music ministers,  vocalists, and choirs have performed and recorded Nahmod’s profound  compositions, including “One Power,” “When I Pray,” “Get Ready My Soul,” “Love  Is My Decision,” “Last Song,” and many more.
