 I saw him a few weeks later, and I said, “What happened? You evidently had plenty of time, after all.” He replied “My train was late, and I got there just fifteen minutes to twelve. I walked into the bank quietly and said, ‘I have come for the loan,’ and they gave it to me without a question.”

It was the last fifteen minutes of the time allotted to him, and Infinite Spirit was not too late. In this instance the man could never have demonstrated alone. He needed someone to help him hold to the vision. This is what one man can do for another.

Jesus Christ knew the truth of this when he said: “If two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.” One gets too close to his own affairs and becomes doubtful and fearful.

The friend or “healer” sees clearly the success, health, or prosperity, and never wavers, because he is not close to the situation.

It is much easier to “demonstrate” for someone else than for one’s self, so a person should not hesitate to ask for help, if he feels himself wavering.

A keen observer of life once said, “no man can fail, if some one person sees him successful.” Such is the power of the vision, and many a great man has owed his success to a wife, or sister, or a friend who “believed in him” and held without wavering to the perfect pattern!
