Until they achieve this, they waste themselves and their true creative powers on useless attempts to make themselves more comfortable by inappropriate means.
But the real means are already provided, and do not involve any effort at all on their part.
The Atonement is the only gift that is worthy of being offered at the altar of God, because of the value of the altar itself.
It was created perfect and is entirely worthy of receiving perfection. God and His creations are completely dependent on each other.
He depends on them because He created them perfect. He gave them His peace so they could not be shaken and could not be deceived. Whenever you are afraid you are deceived, and your mind cannot serve the Holy Spirit.
This starves you by denying you your daily bread. God is lonely without His Sons, and they are lonely without Him.
They must learn to look upon the world as a means of healing the separation. The Atonement is the guarantee that they will ultimately succeed.
