The true spiritual or psychic vision is this, "Whatever I may be, my soul is a child of the Divine and must reach the Divine sooner or later. I am imperfect but seek after the perfection of the Divine in me and that not I but the Divine Grace will bring about; if I keep to that, the Divine Grace itself will do all." The "I" has to take its proper place here as a small portion and instrument of the Divine, something that is nothing without the Divine but with the Grace can be everything that the Divine wishes it to be. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/31/dealing-with-hostile-attacks#p55</ref>
 
==Open to the Divine Grace==
 
And then, if you become aware that it is only the Grace which can do that, that the situation in which you find yourself, from there the Grace alone can pull you out, can give you the solution and the strength to come out of it, then, quite naturally an intense aspiration awakes in you, a consciousness which is translated into an opening. If you call, aspire, and if you hope to get an answer, you will quite naturally open yourself to the Grace. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwm/06/15-september-1954#p32</ref>

It is quite true that it[A great wave (or sea) of calm and the constant consciousness of a vast and luminous Reality] is a grace sent and the only return needed for such a grace is acceptance, gratitude and to allow the Power that has touched the consciousness to develop what has to be developed in the being—by keeping oneself open to it. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/30/experiences-of-the-self-the-one-and-the-infinite#p10</ref>

To practise Yoga implies the will to overcome all attachments and turn to the Divine alone. The principal thing in the Yoga is to trust in the Divine Grace at every step, to direct the thought continually to the Divine and to offer oneself till the being opens and the Mother's force can be felt working in the Adhara. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/32/the-mothers-grace#p9</ref>

Faith is certainly a gift given to us by the Divine Grace. It is like a door suddenly opening upon an eternal truth, through which we can see it, almost touch it. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwm/09/9-july-1958#p4</ref>
