Excerpt from Bible Lessons for Little Beginners: Fifty-Two Lessons Comprising the First Year of a Two-Year Course
The purpose of nature is development. The purpose of the spiritual world is upbuilding. The problem of this world is an educational one, the solution of which is - pro seeding according to fixed divine laws. - froebel.
The mechanic who runs his machine counter to the laws of that machine ruins it and his work. Success comes only when he grasps the thought of the inventor and proceeds in obedience thereto.
So, too, real success in cultivating intellectual and spiri tual life comes only when we work in harmony with the di vine plan; that is, when we follow the laws of mental and spiritual growth.
These laws are written in nature. They are pictured for us in plant and animal life; in the balance of the stars, and even in the formation of crystals and stones.
The plant not only receives and assimilates elements from the earth and air around it, but it also puts forth its own life in root, foliage, and flower. It builds the external into itself, and at the same time puts forth its internal life in external manifestations. Life and growth cease if either process is suspended.
