Divine Understanding is your ability to know that God stands under all things.  It is your power to see the order, good, and purpose underlying all creation,  even though the reason may not be apparent. Stilling yourself to Divine Understanding through meditation allows you to realize that there is a spiritual law at work in all situations.

“You believe because you have seen,
but blessed are they who believe but have not seen."
                                                                                            Jesus 

Knowing that God as Principle stands under all things, and within all things, develops Divine Understanding.  Divine Understanding is more than cognition of the mind.  It is more than impulses moving through your brain.  It is Spirit in action – Divine energy pouring through your consciousness as understanding.   Divine Understanding allows you to move on Faith.

Divine Understanding moves quickly with the opening to Love and is stifled by the holding back of Love.

As you move forward, calling forth Divine Understanding, the underlying principles at work in all situations become clear.  When this takes place you can apply the underlying principles to the situation, and miracles take place.  You suddenly become aware of the limitless resources at your disposal, overlooked until now.

When you still yourself through meditation, you are placing God first in all affairs.  And whenever you ask God to take over, you release your limited point of view.  This released limited point of view is replaced with the understanding of some underlying principle, and eventually it moves through your consciousness into your conscious awareness. 

The perfect balance of wholness is to understand with the head and understand with the heart at the same time.   You can retain facts and knowledge in the head, but without heart knowing, you won’t know that God stands under all that you accomplish.

To understand someone is to love them.   No matter how negative or separate a person might be, if you understand them, you love them.
