SAYINGS OF THE SAGES - WOOD

Henry Wood, 1834 - 1908, Writer

"Whenever we send out loving thoughts in
generous profusion, every part of our
environment echoes back a sweet benediction."

Sometimes a few words like these can inspire
many generations, here are my thoughts in rhyme.

Material things, expressions are
Of spirit's motivate,
The Christ showed how constructive thoughts,
Could shape the spiritual state.
He lived on Earth, in matter showed,
How mind and thought could build,
And manifest creative force,
As each expression wills.

With power stations of beliefs
Man can touch this force,
With concentration of the will
Bring glory or remorse.
So minds and body grow to be
That which they feed upon,
Thoughts, beliefs, activity,
All life's phenomenon.

With mind to build both physical,
And inner spirit too,
The body actions shaped by thoughts
Builds an eternal you.
And sends your joy to all around,
Your woven thoughts move on
To send sweet benedictions forth
With sadness flown and gone.
