“The truths of immortal Mind sustain man, and they annihilate the fables of mortal mind…” (Science and Health, page 103)

Truth is our sustenance. Divine Love is our safe place, our substance, and the refreshing fullness of our lives. These infinite truths that are the thoughts of immortal Mind are the makeup and continuity of our being. They are facts of Life and they are inarguably, agelessly, imperatively true.

These Life-affirming truths are laws of being. They are self-assertive and self-enforcing. These thoughts of God, thoughts of good, are the present reality. They are what Life is constructed of, and the lies, the stories of mortal mind cannot influence them or change the course of Life as it is—immortal, perfect, changeless, good.

Mortal mind is that mind that thinks mortally, that believes in and clings to limit and finiteness. It is that thought which is full of death, full of fear, dark and doomed. And yet these mortal thoughts must be fables, for they do not come of the divine Mind, the one true and only Mind. Fables may attempt to portray an idea, to explain life and its mysteries. But they are mere speculation, without any facts to support them or evidence to prove them. The earth has never been flat, even though that proposition was believed. Man has never been mortal. He has always been sustained by Truth, maintained by Love, and ever free to express the reality of fearless and immortal Life.

“And his allowance was a continual allowance given him of the king, a daily rate for every day, all the days of his life.” (II Kings 25: 30)

We are continually being given our daily allowance, the substance of the King’s plenty and the natural consequence of His Love. The ruler and governor of our existence, the head of our household, is the divine Father-Mother, Who has the supply to give and the wisdom to distribute with care and righteousness.

Every day of our life we have our answers, our angels bearing the daily blessing, the need met. As a child receives his allowance from his loving parents, the amount that would assure right comfort and activity, so do we always. The divine Parent keeps the full inheritance intact for us, while we utilize what is right for today. He assures that we are always going to have our home with Him, and enough daily to work and to play, to give to others, and to rest in satisfaction and gratitude.

The daily rate is not meager or conditional. It is that which is plentiful and which feeds us sufficiently to move forward, to gain a greater sense of goodness, and to experience the true understanding that we live in the kingdom of Love, today, tomorrow, and forever.

“You command the situation if you understand that mortal existence is a state of self-deception and not the truth of being.” (Science and Health, page 403)

Take command. Be clear and confident and fearless and strong. The material situation which would attempt to get us caught up, confused, frustrated, ashamed, afraid, is not the truth of being. We don’t need to believe it, justify it, or fix it with human solutions.

We have control over things by recognizing the unreality of the presentation before us. We can refuse to be self-deceived, hypnotized by a flurry of symptoms or limits, and instead wake up to God’s presence and peace of Mind. We can awake from the mesmerism that would keep us analyzing mortal details instead of living the truth of spiritual being, the heaven that is always harmonious and loving.

Let’s not allow mortal existence to push us around, to tell us who we are and how we are and how life is or must be. We are not deceived because God is not deceived. He is the Creator and keeper of Life, of reality, and there is nothing about His creation that is mortal, fearsome, dangerous, dark. We can accept and utilize the dominion over the limited senses, and command the situation—go forth triumphantly, joyously, and gratefully!

“Convinced of the fruitlessness of their toil in the dark and wakened by their Master’s voice, they changed their methods, turned away from material things, and cast their net on the right side.” (Science and Health, page 35)

The disciples weren’t having a good day. They had lost hope and seemed destined to spend hour upon hour without catching a single fish. The elements seemed to be against them and their own gloominess kept them from seeing the ease of an answer and a blessing already at hand.

They needed the fish for nourishment and they needed the work to feel successful, for satisfaction, worth, and peace of mind. And with the voice of the Christ, they were given both. They were beckoned to stop their fruitless toil and change their methods. They needed to choose the right side, where spiritual Truth was abundant and where all their needs were already met. This fishing, this spiritual seeking, reaped the rewards of a net full of fish and a heart full of joy, expectation, and gratitude. They were ready to work, and to keep on listening.

We can hear this Christ voice as well, awakening us from the mesmerism of peering over the boat on the wrong side into the dark depths of emptiness. This clear and wise and practical voice of Truth is calling us to know the easy way, the way that does not confine itself to material methods, but opens itself to the instruction of God, to inspiration, to refreshment, to Life as it really is—nets full of ideas that feed bodies and spirits with all that saves and satisfies.

“I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.” (John 12: 32)

Jesus’s ascension certainly drew mankind to follow his light and his message of Truth. His resurrection was an indication to all that he spoke truly about being the son of God, Spirit, Life. But this statement concerns each and every one of us. It is not simply about Jesus cheating death and getting attention and worship for it. It is about the way in which we each go about our lives.

When we lift our thought above earth, when we release our ego to the divine “I,” the one true Mind and Life, we are able to become a healing force in the world. It is not by our commiseration with matter and its constant barrage of limits and lies that we are a help to ourselves and to others. It is by a conscious recognition of who we really are and where we really dwell.

It is that conscientious acceptance of our oneness with God, our heavenly dwelling place, that which is clear and right and good, that we will draw others unto us, have an influence on thought and lives. We need to keep out of the tomb of deathly thinking, to be able to claim that healing perspective that is full of daylight and which breaks the gloom for us and for all. Jesus proved that Life is God–not fearful, not earthbound and doomed. This is our truth as well. So let us be grateful, joyous, buoyant, and bright with this irresistible light!

“Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.” (Isaiah 44: 6)

There has never been any God but our God, infinite good. There has never been and will never be another ruler, another Principle, another power or creator. The Father-Mother has always existed and we have always been His children. There have never been other gods vying for our obedience and affection. God declared Himself and His Word stands forever. He is One and All.

The Christ comes anew to redeem us, to announce this unchanging Principle of our Life. Daily we are reminded by this loving Savior, Truth, that we are indeed the children of God, and just as He has never stopped being God, we have never stopped being His beloved ones. We actively and necessarily express Him Who is All and in All. There is no God besides Him and no man besides the right and perfect one we are.

Rejoice and be glad. There is no other god. There is no alternative power calling itself person or matter or circumstance or time. There is no presence calling itself devil, evil, sin, disease, death. There is only one God, one ruler, one King, one presence, one power and His name is Love.

“If ye love me, keep my commandments.” (John 14: 15)

Our obedience to the law of God, to His loving rules for life, comes naturally with our love for Him. In proportion to our consciousness of God and His true nature–that which is worthy of adoration, devotion, fidelity, and faith–we are able to keep His commandments with a sense of ease and joy.

If we are loving the perfect spiritual good that is God; if we are acknowledging Him as our very own Father and Mother and True Love, we can’t help but want to be loyal to His word, to trust His laws to guide us and keep us safe and satisfied. Recognize this natural love of God, of Love, of Life in your hearts and minds, and gracefully and gratefully obey Him.

God’s commandments are truly beckonings into the very Life that is most like us, most right for us, most loving and freeing. His commandments are not restrictions. They are those laws that open our lives to its true potential. His commandments are not that which deprive us of freedom, but which alert us to freedom, all that is real and enduring and right.

Be true to God by being true to yourself, to that which Love caused you to be. Honor divine Love’s creative control, and follow His perfect way of infinite purpose, protection, potential and promise.

“Material sense does not unfold the facts of existence; but spiritual sense lifts human consciousness into eternal Truth.” (Science and Health, page 95)

The revelation of life as it truly is will never come through the five material senses. The senses can’t perceive infinite Spirit, or know the expansive presence of perfect Life and Love. We shouldn’t put faith in sense testimony to show us who we are, what we are, or how we are doing. Physical perception can’t tell us the Truth, for the Truth is spiritual.

The facts of existence come to us through our spiritual senses. This spiritual evidence is clear and right and unshakeable. The human limited thought can awaken to this spiritual awareness by turning to God, good, and away from error, matter, limitation. Each of us has been given a heart that already holds in it the Truth of Being, God’s perfect Love.

Eternal Truth is ours to claim, to see, and to feel. Our spiritual sense is always at the ready. We know when we are receiving this true Word about things because it feels good and it feels right. Spiritual sense is not jarring or disturbing. It is that which calms and assures, enlightens and settles, for it is God’s own voice to our receptive thought, His own caress to our willing souls. Material sense can’t take you home to Truth’s promise, but spiritual sense reveals that you are already there.

“Jesus never spoke of disease as dangerous or as difficult to heal.” (Science and Health, page 147)

Jesus is the best example we have of how to flawlessly heal every sickness that would attempt to antagonize man. His approach was the one that always worked, and our own healings would be better demonstrated by actively pursuing his way of curing. And our starting point in this is so important.

Jesus wasn’t mesmerized by the symptoms of the trouble or the material prognosis for recovery. He didn’t even take the time to acknowledge the various details of the disease that confronted him. He didn’t brood and worry and look at the data of success for the healing of the sickness before him. He didn’t analyze, nor did he fear the disease or the sin. Contagion never entered his mind, nor did the duration of the problem. It was never too late for healing.

Let’s do our best to clear our thought of the preconceived ideas about sickness and the details of the bodies various organs and functions. If it didn’t matter to Jesus, and he healed all things, so why should it matter to us? What did matter to Jesus and should matter to us is the Truth. It is not what matter tells us with all its lying limits, but what God says about our identity, our makeup, the diagnosis for our life (the promise of Life). Let’s start with the easy naturalness of perfection, and go about our prayer and demonstration with a readiness and confidence, knowing that healing is not difficult or complicated. It is natural, necessary, and now!

“There is more Science in the perpetual exercise of the Mind-faculties than in their loss. Lost they cannot be, while Mind remains. The apprehension of this gave sight to the blind and hearing to the deaf centuries ago, and it will repeat the wonder.” (Science and Health, page 487)

The perpetual permanency of the faculties of Mind is scientific. The perfect functioning and use of all the abilities and capabilities of divine Mind is a law of being, all being, and therefore, our being. This is an operating Principle, unchallenged by mortal sense, and forever proving itself as our whole and harmonious lives.

Mind is forever intact and complete. It is All and in all. It contains and expresses all comprehension and every idea. Its eternal integrity is our reliance, our natural and necessary and ageless and immutable expressiveness. We simply can’t lose the faculties of Mind, and they are always available to us. God keeps them and nothing in Him is ever lost nor can it be lost sight of.

Let’s continue to exercise the functions of being that we do always have, rather than working at regaining or worrying about losing that which could never be lost. Sight, hearing, speech, memory, mobility, nobility, grace, perception, clarity, are absolutely our right and our present state of being and living. This “wonder” is ours to realize with our forever perfect and true spiritual senses! Let’s recognize the presence of divine Mind and use these whole and holy faculties to make known to all the glory of God, our faithful Life, Truth, and Love.

“Trials teach mortals not to lean on a material staff,–a broken reed, which pierces the heart. We do not half remember this in the sunshine of joy and prosperity.” (Science and Health, page 66)

Without our trials, our challenges, our disappointments, would we be as aware of what is real, true, and enduring? Would we know what life is truly founded on and grounded in? Those trying times should be cherished, not because we enjoy suffering or self-pity, or because God has planned and sent the trouble, but because they necessarily lead us to Love, true Love. We can be grateful for these hard lessons and losses and conscious of their instruction, of the revelations of Truth that must show forth when matter and material sense and circumstance seems to fail us.

The material staff that may be our first friend and support can’t hold us up, sustain us, or bring us true satisfaction, peace, and enduring joy. Material reliances—people, money, jobs, possessions, personal achievement—are variable, weak, mutable, finite, and subjective. What feels right and perfect one day may be all wrong and even seem to betray us the next day.

But we are never lost or left without our good, our wholeness, our success, our life, our love, our purpose. We only come to know more that the divine Spirit, the Truth of Life, God and His conscious ever-presence, will always be with us, has always been with us, and will always be right and satisfying. Our Father-Mother-Life loves and cares and sustains us in pain and weakness, as well as in joy and prosperity. He always maintains the truth of our being, and keeps us perfect and intact because of who we are to Him—His own adored reflection, necessary expression, and His best-loved child!

“And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.” (Revelation 22: 3-4)

The revelation is reality. The revealing of a heavenly experience is not a distant hope, aspiration, or pipe dream, but the present situation, our own abiding place forever. We needn’t wait for our innocence to be announced by matter and the senses. God has already shown us that there is no curse, no shame, no blame, no necessity for limitation, suffering, or fear. There cannot be in His Love, which is All in all.

We have the Christ-message of Truth, revealing that we are in God’s presence always, beholding His face, His approving Love, His protection, His affection, His unfailing direction. We are not cursed to plod through material life on a course toward material death. We belong to God. His name is ours, His nature is ours to know and express. We are the servants to the Christ-ideal, in that we are faithful expressions of that which is true. We are the very image of God, obedient to Him in purpose, action, and intention.

The Christ-revelation lifts the veil on a false sense of ourselves–cursed and in trouble and unworthy–and we can see the face of God, of goodness, of our place in the kingdom of heaven, life unlimited and harmonious. The Christ-Truth has shown us who we are, and we should never forget it or lose sight of it. We are made in God’s image, as His children, and we can never depart from that fact of our own being, nor can it be hidden anymore. We are not cursed, but infinitely blessed, here and now and always!

“For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs. Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.” (Romans 14: 2-3)

We can each trust our individual leadings, and leave others to theirs. We can pray for the world’s understanding, freedom from fear, and release from unnecessary conditions on their lives. But, we can do it all without judgment, without self-righteousness, and without derision of another’s choices.

God loves each of us unconditionally. God is attending to each of us, guiding us to a unique and right awareness of Him, of good, and protecting us even when we may not be aware of His Word and His arms around us. One may choose wisely in his lifestyle or he may seem to choose contrary to what we might believe to be the right. But we must not judge another. We do not know their hearts and their angels—what guides them and why.

This does not mean we leave people to dangerous or destructive behavior. It does not mean we ignore those who may need some help and instruction, healing and guidance. But, let us be careful that we are listening to God, Love, in what we do. Love respects, listens, honors, is not stubborn or degrading. It does not mock or presume or push.

We can trust each one to his own inspiration—whether it be what he eats or wears or what music he listens to or what choices he makes for healthcare. We are equal to God, and equally loved by Him. We can consciously pray to know and trust and rest in the fact that none are left without the Truth, for that Truth is in our hearts. We can always feel it, hear it, follow it, individually—uniquely, rightly, safely–and always still in harmony with all!

“The Lord knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever. They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.” (Psalms 37: 18-19)

God knows our days, our permanency, our preservation. He consciously sustains our uprightness—keeps us right, perfect, enduring, uplifted, and free. For, we are His beloved, the very ideas in His perfect Mind. We are the thoughts that give Him joy, that express His intention, that glorify Him in every place.

He maintains our inheritance, that heritage that belongs to the sons and daughters of God. It does not disappear in times that seem to challenge us humanly. It is not wrested away from us because of some material circumstance or human decision or turn of events or personal ignorance or misunderstanding. Our days are known of God, and they are perpetual.

Even if we seem to be agonizing in a time of uncertainty, fear, doubt, shame, confusion, He is ever with us, holding us up, asserting our true spotless and magnificent and necessary selfhood. We are always the apple of His eye, the child of His heart, the one whom He will always love and keep safe. He is always pleased.

And when the world about us would fail to feed us, inspire us, supply us, He is ever-present presentness. He is right here and His Love satisfies. It knows no limits, has no conditions, and is undisturbed by material suggestions of poverty of living or of thinking. He simply is all there is to everything, and He is always expressing His flawless Life through His artistry—you and me!

“Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit:” (Ezekiel 18: 31)

Let’s put that all behind us! Let’s step into our new day fresh and free, with a new focus and a renewed devotion. Any wrong thinking or acting of yesterday or five minutes ago, needn’t burden this hour or leave us too tarnished to shine. Each moment we have a new opportunity to do a better thing, live a better way, have a higher hope, and be newly baptized for our life ahead!

Our transgressions–human mistakes and ignorance–are not permanent attachments. They are not a perpetual cross to bear, an obstruction in our path, or some roster of offenses in God’s “big book.” Every moment we are given the occasion for renewed understanding, renewed consecration to good, and to that call to know ourselves as God has always known us—powerful in our innocence, and worthy of His faithful and unlapsing Love,

Our new heart and new spirit are not made of something foreign to us, but is really only our true being reclaimed and accepted. Jesus certainly proved the cleansing Spirit of God’s Truth when he told those of sinful behavior (who seemed to be going against their best nature) to “go and sin no more.” It was that simple. Cast it away. Begin anew. The childish ignorance of yesterday is blessed by the childlike trust of today, and with our new heart and our new spirit, we sing a new song—gratitude, praise, and love!

“…he that believeth shall not make haste.” (Isaiah 28: 16)

 We are true believers. We know that our God is good, is Love, is Truth, is omnipotent. We know that He is All-in-all. So we can relax and rely. We can recognize that the activity of God’s wisdom and efficiency will not leave us wanting. We don’t need to hurry forth in panic, to think that our human doing must head things off or make things happen.

God is doing all and doing it well. His time is neither rushed nor limited. Each moment of being is simply ready rightness, always and already active, never late and never too early, never anticipating trouble yet always alert. Let’s enjoy the wonderful opportunity to pause and be grateful for God’s reliability. Everything is under control. We have adequate time and stillness to listen to and hear Him, to love our lives and those in it, to remember God, good, Life, and to forget our worries.

Our trust in God gives us the luxury of lingering in our joy, without a sense that we will lose time or anything else that is right. He is worthy of that trust just as we are worthy of His care. Our abiding is in Him. He maintains and sustains us always and thoroughly.  Our honoring of that fact recognizes it, gives us the conscious awareness of where we are—that heaven of His presence that is orderly, controlled, regulated, right, and still so very natural and peaceful and free.

“Question.–What is man? Answer.–Man is not matter; he is not made up of brain, blood, bones, and other material elements.” (Science and Health, page 475)

 The physical appearances, the organs and functions that seem to keep us alive and subsequently fail and condemn us to death, have nothing to do with man. They are not included in the divine definition, the Word of God that is fixed and incontestable Truth. We are not built of matter and its anatomy. That description cannot possibly describe God’s idea.

 Spirit created man, and is his very Life. Spirit is not confined in a body or limited by a collection of items supposed to give it mobility, agility, freedom, growth, harmony, peace. Spirit includes and embraces every right quality, unconfined, forever available, expressing without limit and without assistance from matter, that mere belief in limitation.

 So what is man? Right where the mortal sense would limit man to a personal body and personal characteristics, age, accident, genetics, material conceptions of what life should be and what it cannot be, right there is the grand and noble man of God’s own creating and anointing. Right there, right here, is the ideal compound idea, made up of every right concept, expressed in man, but originating in the infinite Mind of God. The heart, blood, lungs, brain are not life. God is Life! Is He material? Is He in an organ to be found or lost? No!

We are that man that is composed of God’s own substance, that which cannot fail and has not, which cannot be impaired and has not, which cannot be given a power to govern life, and has not. Let’s not look for a definition of our being or a statement of our condition from such an unreliable source as matter, when God is announcing our freedom clearly and consistently right here, right now!

“Truth has but one reply to all error,–to sin, sickness, and death: ‘Dust [nothingness] thou art, and unto dust [nothingness] shalt thou return.” (Science and Health, page 545)

Truth is the Creator of all substance, all being, all that is and ever shall be. Truth is the final word on what is real, all that can be considered true and right and permanent. Anything that Truth did not create has no Life in it, no reality to it, no reason for it, no past, present, and certainly no future.

Truth does not equivocate or make any exceptions. It has “but one reply to ALL error.” All that is not God, good, is relegated to remain the nothingness that it has always been. It is dust, inconsequence, a lie with no bearing and no necessity. It stays beneath our feet, never touching the life of God’s ideas, never opposing the omnipotent Truth.

Sin, sickness, and death have not been given a life at one point which must then be destroyed, healed, saved. This accusing triad of fools has always been nothing, without quality, without character, without purpose, and without that Spirit that animates. Truth is definitive about error. The lies must always remain nothing because Truth, God, is All. In God, perfect good, there was never anything out of which to create or perpetuate evil. There is no room in omnipresent good for even a speck of that dust. It is nothing, nowhere, non-existent.

Truth has its everlasting answer for us: freedom, peace, harmony, uninterrupted and uncorrupted. There is no dust on our spotless being. And that’s the Truth!

“Whatever is false or sinful can never enter the atmosphere of Spirit.” (Science and Health, page 70)

 The atmosphere of Spirit is thoroughly pure and completely protected. That clean air of God’s presence contains no contaminating element, nor any crack in ever-presence in which to allow for an intrusion. The goodness of Soul’s creation is boundless and unimpaired. It is everything that is true, real, and right. A lie will never find a place in Truth, but be immediately obliterated, dissolved.

Spirit is divine Mind. That which is perfect and all-wise, will never be fooled by an intruder. Sin, disease, any erroneous belief about Life cannot sneak in and get at the loved, lovable, and lovely idea of God. We are safe from these attacks. The propositions of a mortal mind that would suggest contagion, allergy, fear, limits, age, accident, injury, deterioration, or malfunction, never make it through. The belief that they do does not make it so. What mortal mind thinks and fears is no competition for the divine Mind and what He knows and expresses.

Let’s recognize that we always dwell in the undefiled atmosphere of Spirit, and never for an instant in the oppressive smog of sense illusions. Let’s rejoice that the air we breathe, the ground on which we walk, the consciousness in which we dwell, is permanently perfect. We can’t be touched by evil suggestions, and never have been. We are safe in infinite Spirit, the atmosphere that is full of the substance of Love, without room for anything else.

“Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet thy commandments are my delights.” (Psalms 119: 143)

The Principle of God is not only our rock in a storm, but is our joy, our treasure, our pleasure. We may seem at times to be battered by material life, worn out by worries, torn apart with doubts, and yet right there with us is our refuge. Our obedience to and love of God and His law keeps us safe and sane. It sustains us through the darkness and shows us that the dawn is always nearer than we believed.

As we continue to practice what we know, to love the Truth that has come to our experience, and to remain obedient to the good and the right, we are living God’s ideal. And so we are our own saving grace. We can see this firm and unbending law of Life not as a burden in our times of anguish, but as our safety, serenity, and happiness. This law is rock solid to stand on, but it is Love itself, so it is also a comfort, an embrace, a sanctuary.

We can also recognize that the commandments of God, our duties, and His unwavering goodness, is our opportunity to continue rejoicing in spite of the sense of evil, the belief in another power opposed to perfect good. God’s laws are the laws of Life, and they allow, even require us to dance, to laugh, to live. Why? Because these very laws remind us that Life is God, hence already perfect, whole, worth celebrating. And so we live and love ourselves forward and out of the storm, rather than standing transfixed in the downpour, forgetting that we are free.

“…be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.” (I Timothy 4:12)

It is our duty and privilege to be an example to others of what we believe. We can and must live what we love, that which gives us peace and joy, which inspires and uplifts. We must consciously and conscientiously recognize the gift of knowing God and His active Science, that great law of infinite Love, and act in a way that invites and encourages others to know as well.

Let’s be careful of what we say and how we say it. This does not mean that we measure every word with too much judgment and concern, but that with our hearts full of God and His presence, we can speak from Truth, with an honesty and love that is healing and right and relevant, and which sufficiently honors God. We are His representatives, and we must glow forth with the beauty of His creation and the authority and goodness of His Word, which is Truth.

It may seem easier to commiserate with others’ gripes, to live within our own little worlds selfishly and in search of physical comfort and pleasure. It may seem easier to ignore the world’s woes than to actively work and pray for their removal from consciousness. It may seem more comfortable or familiar to join in the negative conversation, than to uplift it with our higher thought or with the light of love or insight or humor. But, the rewards of being loyal to what we love are great. Not only will we unveil God’s radiance for all, we will naturally bask in it ourselves!

“I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.” (Psalms 69: 30)

Let the singing begin! Let your voice and your heart and your being ring out in praise and gratitude for our God—that eternal good, that infinite Love that is the Truth of all Life. Let’s not be stingy in our thanksgiving. Let’s not qualify our gratitude with an equal dose of griping. Let’s not ruin that beautiful song with a dissonant chord of complaint, resentment, envy, or fear.

Our thanksgiving can be full and fulfilling in every right way. Our own joy and recognition of good, and practice of love, are the bounty of it. It is by our own gratefulness that we are able to see more fully the plentiful spread before us, the feast of good that extends throughout every day of the year and beyond the reach of only family and friends. Our song of thanks for everything that we have, everything that God expresses to us and through us every moment, is healing music for the world. It echoes and reverberates, uplifting hearts and filling the poor in spirit, with hope, faith, and love. It heals.

We magnify God through our love of Him and our uninhibited joy at His law of perfect abundance. Our devoted adoration brings to human view His grandeur and power and beauty, which delights, satisfies, and surprises. This spiritual goodness accepted and rejoiced over, necessarily multiplies, bearing fruit vibrant with the colors of life and the strains of His own perfect song of Life!

“The testimony of the material senses is neither absolute nor divine. I therefore plant myself unreservedly on the teachings of Jesus, of his apostles, of the prophets, and on the testimony of the Science of Mind. Other foundations there are none.” (Science and Health, page 269)

Mary Baker Eddy knew the unreliability of material testimony. She recognized that the evidence presented by the senses and to the senses, could never demonstrate absolute Truth or divinity, Spirit. God’s allness includes no matter at all, and His expression is without the limits and flaws that material sense would suggest. To base any conclusion on something which is neither God’s law nor incontestable Truth, is unwise.

So, Mrs. Eddy planted herself on what was trustworthy, unbending, and proven. She stood on the firm foundation that was not only solid and true and provable, but also loving, spiritual, pure, and divine. There really is no other absolute. Jesus demonstrated through his teachings and healing that God alone was Life and Truth and Love. The so-called miracles that the prophets before him and the disciples who followed him showed the world came not of anything material, but rather in spite of it.

Let us be true followers of those who knew and demonstrated that healing and salvation which brought the divine to earth in the only way it could. That Christ-mind, that trust in the Almighty God as One and All and ours parted waves, fed multitude, raised the dead, and set aside without reservation every material limit. The proof is incontestable and the Principle is the same today as of old. Let’s join those believers of yesterday, and trust what is trustworthy, rather than what the senses would so flimsily propose, and rejoice that we know our sure foundation, the one and only God!

“This conviction, that there is no real pleasure in sin, is one of the most important points in the theology of Christian Science.” (Science and Health, page 403)

This key point must be accepted and understood. The acknowledgment of this truth of our life sets us free to be ourselves–the glorious! And it makes us not only right in God’s eyes, but happy, satisfied, at peace.

Let’s recognize that it is not divine Love’s purpose that we be deprived of good things, of joy, of pleasure, of activities that excite and delight. He clearly does not accept sin as a proper source for or expression of anything that would provide such bliss and true contentment. Sin–a false belief that the material senses are true givers or receivers of good–is here to be given up. The Truth of Life annuls the lie, and opens up the heavens for our playing in and rejoicing over.

Sins are merely limitations, obscurations, impurities. These lowered standards for our life, cause us to see ourselves as in need of matter and its testimony to give us delight. This false view would define us as mortal and confine us to its miseries, mysteries, and eventual end. But, the point to be understood is that we are not limited mortals, and therefore, we certainly do not enjoy living as one. Our joy is not found in that which does not in any measure suit our grandeur and nobility and goodness. We have higher expectations and thus a fuller reward of riches in this experience, now, and eternally.

So let’s take hold of this important principle, and remember that what God’s pleasure is for us includes our pleasure in Him—in that which is truly freeing, powerful, healing, loving, and fun! In this our joy is full, lasting, and right.

“One says: ‘I take good care of my body.’ To do this, the pure and exalting influence of the divine Mind on the body is requisite, and the Christian Scientist takes the best care of his body when he leaves it most out of his thought, and, like the Apostle Paul, is ‘willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.’” (Science and Health, page 383)

Take care of yourself! Be healthy, comfortable, thriving, energized, youthful and free. Do this by letting yourself go! Give your body and your life over to the divine Mind and divine Life and keep it out of mortal mind and its fixations, false opinions, fears, and preoccupied “doctoring” in thought and action.

Jesus and his followers proved that “presentness” with God–a thought dwelling on Him and His goodness, substance, Love–was the duty of man and a duty that (as all spiritual behests do) must necessarily lead to healing, release, heaven. By leaving the body and its various parts out of our consciousness, we are receptive to and aware of the reality of Spirit, the qualities that we have and are, those ideal ideas are never confined to organs and functions, physiology or physical structure, time or circumstance.

We can care for our body in very natural and right ways—normalness of being and action, right and satisfying sleep, hygiene, exercise—without undue preoccupation with it. We achieve so much more when the thought is on good, God, Life, freedom, than when it is mesmerized by conversations about and with the body, frustration at its action or inaction, and fear over its appearances. The less thought we put on the body, the more it can naturally be what it already is: the perfect expression of GOD’S thought– always right, always flourishing, always pure and beautiful.

So take good care of yourself, by letting yourself go!

“Creator….the animating divine Principle of all that is real and good.” (Science and Health, page 583)

The one and only Creator of all is God, good, divine Love. This Principle alone is the creative power of all life, of all that exists in Truth. And this loving Source is that which animates us, without fail or exception.

To animate means to give life, to make alive and bring into being. It can mean “to make lively, vivacious, or vigorous; give zest or spirit to” and “to fill will courage, encourage, and to motivate to action.”

Let’s realize with gratitude what this powerful Principle is able to do and must do for all, for each of us. Not only are we living and breathing, expressing that immortal Life that is God and His own Being, but we are also daily and hourly being given that spirit which makes us not only alive but also lively, full of zest, energy and motivation.

This Principle, Love, is changeless, immovable, reliable. It does not get sapped by weariness, atmosphere or climate, discouragement, a human sense of burden, or fear. This Creator of our life is constantly animating, renewing, charging up and encouraging us. Our God, Spirit, perfect good necessarily causes us not only to be alive, but to feel alive, to feel joy and eagerness, a readiness for activity, for prayer, for work, for play, and for praise.

Let’s recognize that the creative power in our lives is not a personal sense of movement or enthusiasm–coming and going, here one day, gone the next–but is a divine essence, a power that is always at the ready, always lovingly moving us, and giving us a life that is purposeful and pleasing.

“Neither sympathy nor society should ever tempt us to cherish error in any form, and certainly we should not be error’s advocate.” (Science and Health, page 153)

No disease or disturbing belief about man and about life should be allowed a place of honor and attention. We should be sympathetic with individuals who may suffer, should show them compassion and tenderness and understanding, but, at no time should we “sympathize” with the error itself, no matter how pervasive seems the disease or how frightening its name.

We are God’s representatives. We speak for and express the Truth, the Life, and the Love that casts out these falsities, that praises God’s presence and lives it for all to see and to rejoice in. We should not cherish in thought, keep a vigil with and give abiding attention to, that which is not good, right, and desirable. We must always be an advocate for Truth, keeping that which is God’s law in thought as we defend ourselves and all from the accusations that have no basis and that depress hope.

No matter how aggressive a sickness or error may seem to be, we should never find justification for it, pity over it, or attribute it to a source, a beginning, a reason, and an eventual prognosis. Error is never real. There are no exceptions. The law always supports harmony, immortal life, God’s purpose and design upheld.

Let us be wise to the temptation to get too close to a problem, whether it be one we observe in the world or in our own bodies and lives. We have the healing Truth at hand to cherish and utilize. Making the lie comfortable will never make us more comfortable. Stay on the right side, on your own side, on God’s side, and win!

“Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.” (Luke 6: 38)

Give with generosity, with freedom, without fear. You have an unlimited supply of riches to share. You sparkle with a beauty more pleasing than a case full of jewels. Your presence, your life, your active being is resplendent and abundant. Give with joy what you have and who you are. Such giving blesses, with no loss to you, and a great gain for all.

When we give with love and of Love, it is returned to us with an immeasurable fullness. Those who receive give back to us—whether in the form of substance or the simple yet great gift of gratitude, a smile, a release to joy and wonder and hope. And yet this measure of good that comes back to us has never been outside of us to begin with. But by our use, fearlessly, of the qualities of good, the gifts that we have, we only become more aware of their origin, of God, of that which is infinite and loving and right.

There is never a call or justification for stinginess. There is never a reason to hold back on a heartfelt impulse to share, to give a gift that pleases, and by doing so, to make joy, comfort, light more powerful in the world. For that satisfied soul who receives from us, gives as well, causing the world to unite in one great purpose, with God as the source and circumference of it all. This is spiritual love uplifting the world beyond materialism and personal ownership, to the great fact that God is all, and that we, therefore, are perfectly blessed and thoroughly satisfied.

“A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.” (John 16: 21)

The new idea is constantly being brought forth. The bright promise for the recognition of the true man and woman that we are is always breaking through. The joy is already here to be claimed. We know what awaits, for we know our Father-Mother, and He knows us—the conception of His Love and the proof of His perfect Being. Our mourning can cease now. The sweet child of Love is about to make a stunning entrance!

Let us also know that we–just as a mother who loses the agony of the birth process when she holds her little one close–can give up the struggle, anguish, complaints and pains of yesterday for the newborn day and its wonderful potential. While we may feel that our lives have been too hard, too challenging, too much full of pain or loss or injustice, we can let that go. Our hour has come. Today is a day that we bear witness to the emergence of that developing idea. Now is the hour that we awake to behold ourselves and our lives clean and pure and ready to be loved and celebrated!

Today “a man is born into the world.” Today is the Christ-idea that Jesus proved ready for praise and honor, for grateful reverence. Today is our own new child born, our innocent yet powerful selfhood ushered forth into the bright morning to be embraced, sung over, celebrated, and upheld by the firm and tender hand of God.

“And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.” (Isaiah 40:5)

Merry Christmas and hallelujah! Let’s celebrate Life and Love and the infinite presence of good, God, our generous and wise Creator-Father-Mother-Friend. Let’s join in a great chorus, sometimes in unison, sometimes in harmony, but always in beautiful and active praise of the Truth of our unity, our oneness with God and so with each other and with all mankind.

God’s glory is revealed. The Christ that appeared to the human thought continues to remind us that the Spirit of divine Life is here and that we can witness it. All flesh, all people, all nations, all creation can see this together. We can bear witness to the great appearing of the Comforter, that genuine and gentle spirit that comes to us where we are and shows us who we are—the children of infinite Spirit, of immortal Life, of perfect Love.

And this glory shall be seen in our being, in our acting, in our substance, in the ease and comfort and rightness of our bodies and our peaceful minds. The Word of God is clear and true. It embraces and expresses all. Everything that is, must be His and like Him. So, on the Christmas morning, on this reminder of the sacred birth of the sign of Immanuel—God with us–we can know and love that not a place on this globe nor in our being can fail to express what the mouth of the Lord has spoken, and to see it clearly and fully together.

A blessed Christmas to all!

“The lack of spiritual power in the limited demonstration of popular Christianity does not put to silence the labor of centuries. Spiritual, not corporeal, consciousness is needed.” (Science and Health, page 67)

Don’t let the small and limited blind you to the grand and limitless. Don’t allow the Christ to be obscured by human observation and analysis, cynicism and arrogance. We need a spiritual consciousness, an awareness based on Truth, on fact, on Science and not on that which would oppose it—mortal mind, that false sense of life in matter.

The work of the early prophets and of Mary Baker Eddy can’t be silenced or forgotten. What came before naturally set a precedent that can’t be overturned. The proof is the proof. The Truth is the Truth. Jesus Christ risen is Life immortal and immaterial. We see because it has been seen. We know because our spiritual, not our corporeal, consciousness opens wide our eyes and our hearts to God, and to the grace called Christian Science healing.

 Our acceptance of this perpetual power and its undaunted presence gives us the ability to utilize and demonstrate it. We are not here to question, argue with, fret over, debate about, the Truth that Jesus revealed, established, and proved. We would unnecessarily limit the spiritual by relegating it to the human sense of it. The Principle that heals and saves does not need to be justified by testimony that is fallible. It needs to be cherished and adored and utilized because it is incontestable, the Word that is always right and that is as significant and active today as it was centuries ago.

“Which of these two theories concerning man are you ready to accept? One is the mortal testimony, changing, dying, unreal. The other is the eternal and real evidence, bearing Truth’s signet, its lap piled high with immortal fruits.” (Science and Health, page 494)

We have a choice. We can decide consciously what we want to have and who we want to be. We can choose to believe in and be mesmerized by that which is mortal and dying, unreliable and uncertain, confusing and disturbing. We can allow that lying sense testimony to keep us feeling caged and limited and condemned.

Or we can see with our spiritual eyes, feel with our true hearts, and accept fully with our Christ-minds, that which is real, lasting, and perfectly good. We can recognize the pure and eternal man who God made, that man who is capable of all good, perpetually blessed, ready for Life that is divine and satisfying. We can perceive this reality of being and rejoice that it is ours both to express and to also know in others. The beautiful and enduring ideal is always ours to be and to see. The ugly and finite can be refuted, refused, and given up.

Let’s not be timid or slow about making this choice. Let’s accept that bounty that Truth has given us, that glory that is ours, that unlimited freedom that is our birthright. The wrong idea can seem so solid, but it is mortal mind’s conviction, not the certainty of Truth, of Soul, of God. Spirit declares us rightly, and that testimony is unshakeable, incontestable, and everything that we already have and already are.

“Each successive stage of experience unfolds new views of divine goodness and love.” (Science and Health, page 66)

It’s a brand new year! It’s a fresh human appearing of the divine creation, that which is finished and whole and perfect and satisfying and inclusive of all life and being. This revelation of Truth, these new views, are discovered through our human experiences, our trials, our growth, our loss of ignorance and our gain of wisdom, hope, and contentment.

All is already done. The new year of human consciousness is blessed in that it is given new perspectives daily, new ways of witnessing the goodness, new visions of the Love that is divine, that heals, purifies, unites, and saves. Our life is Life Itself–it naturally progresses, flourishes, and advances. This is the law of being. Our Live must be opening up before us, never tapering off or shutting in or breaking down.

Let us love each of our experiences and acknowledge the new awareness they bring of our divine origin and purpose and substance. Let us cherish that we are always ascending to heights where the view is greater, the images clearer, and God’s presence more realized as that which leads us forward, out of yesterday into the bright promise of today!

Happy New Year!

“Christianity is the basis of true healing. “ (Science and Health, page 192)

The foundation, the starting point, the basis of all real and lasting healing is Christianity. It is in our Christ-like approach to living and being that we are able to heal and experience healing. The Principle is secure. God has made all things according to His perfection, power, and Love. He has caused only the right to be and to endure, and His work is complete, finished, incontestable.

This realization of being must be accepted and practiced. The way is the Christ and the way to find the way, to become acquainted with its tender power, is Christianity. It is that faith in and trust of God and His child, the son that Jesus demonstrated and that we already are. We must accept the Christ, the message of God and His heaven, His goodness, and our own natural inheritance of divinity.

And so, knowing who we are, we can set forth to be true Christians—not as a religious sect, but as those who practice the Christ-intention, that healing thought and touch that bless every place in which we enter. We can naturally be kind and compassionate, yet diligent and faithful and strong in our convictions, our firm understanding that God is All and that He is absolute good, right here, right now. Let us truly grasp with our hearts what it means to be a “Christian” and then our healing will be in line with that which the very first Christian could accomplish. And, just as Jesus promised, we will do greater things as well!

“This city of our God has no need of sun or satellite, for Love is the light of it, and divine Mind is its own interpreter.” (Science and Health, page 577)

Everything that God created, everything that exists in Truth, the whole of the universe of reality, is controlled and governed and protected and warmed by divine Love. The true light of Life and Love is not limited to a material object, either a sun out in space or some individual or ideal either physically close or off in the distance. Material belief separates man from his Source. The Truth binds Him to it, securely, and makes all things right immediately and eternally.

We are not looking out to the stars, determining our fate, attempting to predict our course or another’s behavior. We dwell in the Mind that is God. That Mind, being one, is not interpreted, convinced, pleaded with, or fooled. It must necessarily be Its own interpreter—knowing purely and securely and wisely that which is right and needed, that which is valid and real, and that which expresses God’s own righteous intention.

We have a restful citizenship in this great city. We are able to bask unfailingly in the steady light of God’s Love, to feel the comfort that comes of knowing that we are guarded on all sides, that our Governor every moment knows His own Mind and that that fact is our salvation. No clouds can darken that everlasting sunlight and no mortal mind can misinterpret or redefine the law that governs all so righteously, lovingly, exclusively. We are always dwelling in that place that glows with Life, and shines with the active energy called Love.

“Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping. The Lord hath heard my supplication; the Lord will receive my prayer.” (Psalms 6: 8-9)

Our tender Father-Mother is our comfort and our protection. He is forever with us, and He hears our plea, comes to wipe away our tears, and always knows our heart and its true motives and desires. This faithful presence and attention of the Father, is our salvation from the terrors and errors that would try to cause us fear, shame, or pain. Our God is not afar and distant, inactive or unresponsive. He is here.

Our God is Love. His very purpose is to embrace, to save, to make comfortable, to keep the good alive and to negate necessarily all that might harm His own ideas. Knowing this, we can demand that the evil depart from us, that even those thoughts which seem to want to argue within us for attention be banished from our experience at once and forever. We needn’t accept the presence of anything unloving for any longer than God would abide it.

Our prayer is heard. Our full and receptive turning to divine Love for help, for understanding, for peace, for comfort, for absolution, for cleansing, never fails to receive a blessing. The tears that seem to overwhelm us need not overtake us. Our Mother is with us. She knows our need, and loves to love us into freedom, to love with that true love that does not pity, but is merciful, tender, understanding, and healing. We are not alone in despair. We are at One with Infinite and active Love.

“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.” (Ephesians 3: 20-21)

We are under the direct influence of the Almighty One. We are subject to and the recipients of the grand benevolence of divine Love itself. We are being given more than enough, bestowed with priceless goodness beyond what we can imagine for ourselves. Our desires and requests for what we think we need pale in comparison to what the Father-Mother has planned, and has already done.

God’s intention is full of divine wisdom and divine Love. We have every reason to accept His bestowals, to open our hearts and our arms to receiving the benefits of His design for us. We can rejoice in the presence now of His treasures and the limitless possibilities which await us in the next moment. Nothing is impossible to God and the right thing can’t be lost or lost sight of, given to another, or depleted. Our good is ours to have and to know and to experience.

The Christ demonstrated the might and magnificence of what God is able to do for us and through us. Through Jesus’ teaching and example, we have come to know that we have a super-abundance of good ideas and their tangible expression at hand, perpetually. We have a complete and present and necessary capacity to do what God has intended for us, to fulfill His purpose with flying colors. And we can do this gratefully and with the joy that comes from knowing that we are rich in Life, Truth, and Love, forever and ever, without pause or end. Let’s all say “amen” to that!

“Intelligent matter is an impossibility.” (Science and Health, page 409)

Let’s not give matter so much credit. Let’s stop investing it with intelligence, with the ability to tell us anything, to push us around, to propose ideas and conclusions. Matter has no mind. It has no discerning characteristics or means of thinking. It is not an ego or a power to fight, hope to conquer, or to submit to.

Intelligence belongs to Mind, to God. Mind expresses Its own ideas, and all of them must comply with that one Mind, must obey and necessarily harmonize. Matter and its supposed physical body and sense testimony have no ring of truth, no wisdom, and can’t argue for itself. We can and must stop bestowing matter with a power and intelligence and control that it can’t possibly have. God is the controller and keeper. He is infinite Spirit, and that Spirit is the substance of our being, behaving always according to the properties of Spirit—right, limitless, beautiful, immortal, ageless, timeless, unconfined, and free.

The material body is not a worthy opponent. It is never going to win a debate so do we need to waste our time listening to its claims and arguments? Do we need to rile ourselves up struggling with it, fighting with it, hating its behavior, questioning its intentions? Would we not be wiser to remember that matter is without mind, without power, and that the truth of our perfect being has already won because it is the Truth? We can know and love that our bodies and lives are under the control of divine intelligence alone–that spiritual awareness that is God, and so absolutely perfect and present and incontestable Love, all that is right and natural and good.

“Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.” (Matthew 18: 21-22)

Really? Isn’t there some occasion where forgiveness is just not necessary or possible? Aren’t there certain behaviors and actions that are simply unforgivable?

Well, no. Jesus, that wise and powerful man whose every word was inspired by God, basically said there were no exceptions. Was he condoning martyrdom? Was he expecting that to be loving and good, we had to do something that seems nearly impossible at times? Was he suggesting that we just lay down and let ourselves be walked upon, or that we just forget about some evil done to us that has really seemed to hurt us or another? Yes.

But Jesus was always all about love and about His Father’s purpose. So this admonition to his disciples of that day and us today, was to do what comes naturally. He was encouraging us, as he always did, to be who we are, the children and expression of God, Love. He was alerting us to recognize that only in expressing love, could we be true to our God and to ourselves. Any other action was betraying Him and going against our own nature, our own comfort, our own peace. It would also admit a power apart from Love, God, which can somehow challenge His authority, alter His harmony, and use His own child for evil.

Forgiveness is likely the highest form of love, next to that which is truly divine. It may feel like a hard task, but, if we are being called to do it, we are ready for it, ready to really honor God and show not only our own ability to transcend mesmerizing human experience, but also the power that Love’s expressing can bring to that very experience. Our forgiveness comes of love for God, for good, for Love itself, and that can’t fail to bless us and all.

“Citizens of the world, accept the ‘glorious liberty of the children of God,’ and be free! This is your divine right.” (Science and Health, page 227)

The law is on our side. We are native citizens of heaven, of the divine Mind’s creation, where all must comply with His perfect law and order. Everything must abide by the rule of Love, and this rule makes no exceptions. Nothing can unfairly accuse or bind us. No evil influence can terrorize us into believing we are insecure in our lives or in our bodies. God’s city is protected on all sides, and every citizen is safe and free.

Let’s accept this liberty. Let’s claim our rightful place in this grand kingdom, in this experience of Life that is God’s own ideal, His own nature finding perfect expression. The law is the law. It is not debatable. It is forever available, active, and ready for our full acceptance. We are children of God. We are the very offspring of divine Love’s love, of divine Life’s life. We are free to be free, right here, right now.

Don’t for a moment believe that the material world can make new rules, or overrule God’s perfect presence and power. Don’t for a moment think that you can lose your rights, that some material circumstance or medical conclusion can decide your fate. A child of God is subject to the divine law alone. You are a child of God. You are a free man and woman. You are perfect and innocent and free and a legitimate citizen of the city of Light and Right. Accept it!

“Am I a God at hand, saith the Lord, and not a God afar off?” (Jeremiah 23: 23)

God is constantly announcing His presence and not His absence. He tells us always that He is near, at hand, not some elusive ideal to reach for, but the very Truth and Life and Love that are already ours to celebrate and to live. God, good, is the very essence of our own being, our very heart, and our faithful Life. We are never separate from this Life-force, this divine power and Love. It is as close as our own thoughts and our next breath.

Let’s realize this availability of God, the fact that He is always embracing us, speaking to us, protecting us, and loving us with sufficiency and substance. This Bible verse is His firm announcement:  “I AM not over there, either in yesterday, or tomorrow, in someone else’s place or received through someone else’s presence. I AM right here, right now, your own Life, Mind, and being. I AM with you always and this moment.”

Let us seek not by looking at what appears to be trouble, lack, the limits of matter. Instead, let us seek by claiming. Let us recognize and cherish and accept the God that is reality, is Truth, is goodness, is harmony, is the solid substance of what we already are and what we must ever remain—the ideal ideas of His own perfect Mind and the recipients of His ready, steady Love.

“The more difficult seems the material condition to be overcome by Spirit, the stronger should be our faith and the purer our love.” (Science and Health, page 410)

Our challenges may seem overwhelming, and our strength depleted at times, but the significant thing to remember here is that this seeming trying material condition is not being overcome by human strength. It is Spirit that does the overcoming, the dissolving, the saving.

Divine Spirit’s promise of Allness, of potency, of rightness releases us from a personal sense of struggling and fighting, of being humanly strong and patient and fearless. We are not the source of healing, nor can we be. God, divine Spirit, the omnipotent All that is Love, is caring for us, is asserting Truth actively where that lie appears to be, and is showing us our safety and perfection and peace. It is not human effort that overcomes, nor is our strength of faith and purity of love drawn from human resources.

The very Spirit that protects and defends, renews and revives, is also the Source of our faith and love. We are able to draw upon that ever-present goodness and power, to claim and utilize the very qualities of God on our own behalf. It is because He is faithful that we can reflect that fortitude. It is because His love is pure and perfect and unconditional, that we can wrap ourselves in that very love and breathe a sigh of grateful relief.

The harder the battle may seem to appear, the greater the Truth that beckons us to claim it. We are more than simply hopeful, we are expectant, we are buoyant! Spirit is here to reveal our Life more fully, more gloriously, and we might as well be at the ready for the victory now!

“The Lord recompense thy work, and a full reward be given thee of the Lord God of Israel, under whole wings thou art come to trust.” (Ruth 2:12)

We can receive the sweetness of this blessing. We can relish our work and our lives knowing that this assurance is ours, and it is not a meager promise. Our work, our inspired listening and earnest acting, our God-designed mission and each small moment which contributes to it, is recompensed. It is all given a full compensation, God’s approval which is our substance.

We have come to trust in God’s wings, the expanse of His protection and His comfort, around us and over us. Because of this reliance, we are supplied, we are given every needful thing, including that right and satisfying work which pleases God just as it demonstrates His own goodness and control.

Ruth received this full reward, this acknowledgment of her dedication, her love for God and her family, her devotion to doing what was right, loving, and God-guided. She followed the heart of Love that told her to stay with her mother-in-law after the death of her husband, and to remain faithful to the ideal that she had come to know and love—God and His goodness, Truth, and Love. This trust in Soul’s wings carried her home, to new activities, new life, new love, and a natural and necessary comfort, supply, and peace. We, too, can have such an obedience and trust, and with it the reward that fully satisfies and leads us home to joy.

“Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance.” (Psalms 32:7)

God, good, is our refuge, our sanctuary, our peace. He is our only true escape from the delusions and confusions of sense and the limits and lies of material living. This hiding place does not isolate us from others or from Life, but fully unites us with God’s purpose, His harmonious design of Love which necessarily includes all.

We can retreat to this place of comfort and inspiration. We can and must withdraw from the accusations against our beautiful Life that want to inundate us, to make us hear only noise and see only darkness. We must pause in God, in that place of infinite good. We must hide ourselves away, allowing God’s voice, His song, to pierce through and save us. His saving song, whether tender and slow and sweet, or thunderous and awakening and exciting, is ready to be heard and to bring inspiration, hope, and healing.

Let’s not hide from Life in sleep, in complaint, in seclusion, in fear, in a gloomy living tomb. Instead, let’s make our hiding place that which is not only bright and warm and comforting, but also the very source of a new sense of life, a renewed body and mind, a readiness to participate in Love’s great purpose. Then we can truly leave the confines of self and selfishness, for the pleasures and treasures of Soul!

“Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need…to all mankind and in every hour, divine Love supplies all good.” (Science and Health, page 494)

Wouldn’t the very first human need that divine Love would meet be the seeming need for love? God, Love, is always supplying us with the very right and perfect thing to cause us to feel cared for, safe, and satisfied. We can awaken to the fact of God’s presence and Love’s necessary action of loving. Nothing can hide this faithful Lover from us. We are always receiving the kiss of approval and affection from our One and Only True Love.

Every moment of every day divine Love is supplying Love. And perfect Love knows just how to love us—not obscurely or at a distance or without full attention. God is always near, a companion, a caretaker, a voice of cheer and uplift, a caress of understanding. Let’s recognize this forever active divine Love. Let’s accept that no material and delusionary sense of aloneness, loss, or inadequacy has ever stopped God from being present and true.

Divine Love supplies all good for all. Every seeming human need is already met, because the sense of need is false to begin with. Right here and right now, God’s Allness, potency, perfection, harmony, peace, life, completeness fill all space, your being, and there is no inch in your experience or in your heart that is not already filled with divine Love.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

“Selfishness tips the beam of human existence towards the side of error, not towards Truth. Denial of the oneness of Mind throws our weight into the scale, not of Spirit, God, good, but of matter.” (Science and Health, page 205)

Selfishness is an imbalanced way of thinking and living. It puts us on the wrong side, distancing us from that which is enriching, powerful, right and true. Being selfish is not simply about humanly caring for ourselves over others, working always for our own purposes or goals, or even simply “looking out for number one”! It is also a way of thought and behavior that would deprive us of accepting our natural blessings.

Selfishness rejects reality, security, and peace. It denies the oneness that is Mind and His idea, and proposes minds many, actions and behaviors at odds, and a need for self-preservation. But this perception of things is totally false, and so it doesn’t work. It chafes against harmony, attempts to divide the indivisible. It is like trying to separate the idea from its own nature which can’t be done.

Let’s recognize that selfishness is not only thinking only of ourselves, but it is also NOT thinking of God, not allowing Him to be the Mind that He is, the Life that He is, the Love that He is. We are selfish when we cling to human will and a human sense of control, as if we know righteousness better than Truth itself.

So, let’s allow the true balance of being to show forth, yield to God’s oneness and goodness, and discover just how satisfying this unselfish thinking and being is for us and for all!

“…one cannot suffer as the result of any labor of love, but grows stronger because of it.” (Science and Health, page 387)

A labor of love comes with all of divine Love’s power behind it, as well as Love’s assurance, comfort, and care for us as well as for our good work. When we put our heart into an effort that intends to bless, we truly can’t suffer for it. The world, or the various wrestlings of mortal thought, may suggest resistance, but those arguments and accusations can’t be damaging to us or to our righteous cause.

The presentation of weariness and discouragement and fear as well as physical discomfort, can be rejected as unnecessary and unreal. We can trust the divine energy and intention, God’s own control and expectation and so we can continue to believe in what we are doing and in ourselves. We mustn’t allow the sense of time constraints and the beliefs of stress and limitation to cause us to forget the most vital element in our work—our love.

That very love, that affection for good, is a protection and a power. God’s Love for us fuels that which we love, feeds us with inspiration, and defends us from harm. We can persist in what we are led to do fearlessly, looking to our heart daily to remind us of the love we have for what we do, and for God who gave us this purpose and is faithfully carrying it out.

“Spirit and its formations are the only realities of being. Matter disappears under the microscope of Spirit.” (Science and Health, page 264)

Spirit constitutes all that is, that was, that can be. Everything is made up of the distinct and perfect elements of Spirit and forever express and retain Spirit’s qualities. Limitless Life, indestructibility, timeless beauty, harmonious function are the constituents of being. The spiritually good, pure, and right, are the real, the substantial, the true.

Let us take up with gratitude that “tool” that gives us clear vision, insight, perfect perception of the facts. The “microscope” of Spirit, Mind’s view of His own creation, sees infinitely and will never uncover a flaw nor limit, no part or particle of life that is not caused with a purpose and consistently fulfilling that loving intention. Organic life, atomic structure, and its finiteness and variableness will never be seen if we look through the lens of Truth.

We can know and love the fact that no matter whether we look out to the stars, or into the depths of the molecules of life, we will never find matter there. It must naturally disappear because the qualities of Spirit swallow it up. Where infinite Life is, finite life cannot be. Where unlimited activity and beauty exist, deterioration, ugliness, stagnation and aberration cannot be. We are true Scientist. We know how to use the tools and rules that have been given to us and to prove the forever fact that God, Truth, Spirit, Love, is All and within all. Always. Here. Right now.

“Let us rid ourselves of the belief that man is separated from God, and obey only the divine Principle, Life and Love. Here is the great point of departure for all true spiritual growth.” (Science and Health, page 91)

It all comes back to this. It all comes back to the original premise, the first commandment, the primary ideal, the one defining law of life. There is only one God, one Mind, one Life. Man is necessarily at one with this Life, an idea of this Mind, subject to this pure and perfect Ego, and thus permanently safe, secure, and satisfied.

If we are to live the Truth of being that displays our heaven before us and within us, we must give up the false premise, the lie of a life that is separate from and reaching toward God, good, heaven, bliss; or that is, alternately, moving away from innocence, peace, perfection. We must start rightly to end rightly. We must accept the Truth with gratitude and joy, and so reap the benefits of standing on the grounding of fact, of law, of certainty.

This divine Principle of Life and living is simple, basic, easy, and natural. There is not God and us. There is not Spirit and also material objects. There is not Life divine and material life confined in a body separate from Love and subject to arbitrary laws. There is God, the One Mind and Life, and we are always with Him, in Him, expressing out from His intention, the object of His Love and the proof that He is All and that He is all good.

“Legally to abolish unpaid servitude in the United States was hard; but the abolition of mental slavery is a more difficult task. The despotic tendencies, inherent in mortal mind and always germinating in new forms of tyranny, must be rooted out through the action of the divine Mind.” (Science and Health, page 225)

The tyranny imposed by mortal mind needs our righteous warfare. We must rise up against the error that would call us slaves to fear, to limits, to a material body, to age, to time, to temperament. Keep alert to those sometimes subtle despots who would rob us of our natural and inherent peace. We were born free, born of God’s grace and His love, and nothing can change that fact nor ever has.

We certainly can oppose with our prayer and with our determination those things that would attempt to classify members of society as second class citizens, less worthy of success, of safety, of peace. We can be activists against that which does not seem principled or right. But, let’s be sure our activism doesn’t stop there. We must yield our thought to the action of the divine Mind, recognize the true and loving control of God, and of the Life which that necessarily brings to all His children.

Let’s be our own advocates. Let’s recognize that those enslaving voices and opinions– our own and others–that would shut us in, confine our possibilities and depress our hope, are not legitimate rulers. They cannot usurp God’s power or challenge His benevolent law. We are alert to these unlawful challengers to our Life, and we are ready to claim and assert our freedom and freedom for all mankind!

“There is to-day danger of repeating the offence of the Jews by limiting the Holy One of Israel and asking: ‘Can God furnish a table in the wilderness?’ What cannot God do?” (Science and Health, page 135)

Is there anything that God can’t do, that the infinite Almighty cannot express, and that He has not already done? Nothing has reality, presence, or power but what our Maker has created, and He has created perfect good, perfect wholeness, absolute harmony and unending abundance. He is the omnipotent and He is ever-present and always active, alive as our very Life, and the keeper of heaven. Everything is possible to Him.

Will we “offend” Him just as those in ages past, limiting Him with human conditions and giving matter the power to impede infinite Truth, Spirit, Principle? If we accept God as our God, then we must accept that He is capable of All, and that All is for us, for good, for Life, for the perpetual expression of His own ideal. His presence is our provision. His Love is our health, safety, and perpetual peace.

Let’s refuse to be doubters. Let’s take on that childlike yet wise expectation that is delighted but not surprised when perfect good, the perfect solution, the resplendent table in the wilderness of human darkness emerges to provide for us, to save us on every side, to brighten our life. Let’s remember that our God is not a god that is partial or occasional. He is everlasting Truth that is everywhere and here to be seen, felt, known. Let’s stand in expectancy and in thanks. What cannot God do? Amen and hallelujah!

“Both Science and consciousness are now at work in the economy of being according to the law of Mind, which ultimately asserts its absolute supremacy.” (Science and Health, page 423)

The Truth of being is keeping every detail of our lives in order. The law that is divine Science in action has loving and wise and impeccable control over all that is our experience. We are participating in that grand design through our willing and inspired consciousness. Our trust in and reliance on that law of love cooperates with that Science, proving that which is infallible and right and abundant with goodness.

The Christ-consciousness that has dawned on human thought is at work now and progress insists on bringing out the highest ideal, showing earth the nature of heaven and its presence for us here and now. That Christly standpoint knows the Father-Mind, accepts the wisdom that is law, and yields the willful human sense to the restful prosperity of Soul.

Everything is working in our favor. Goodness is right now available, active, assertive. The right thing is the very thing we have. The human thought can give up its wresting, arranging, contriving, planning, fretting, and fearing. The divine Mind is the one intelligence—creative, productive, and loving. This is our consciousness to reflect and to rest in, ours in which to flourish and to be at peace.

“But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold. My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined.” (Job 23: 10-11)

Our divine Mind knows where we are and where we are going. Our tender and mighty Father-Mother-Truth is always leading us in His way, by His wisdom, and with His Love. Even those seeming challenges that would confront us along our walk of life cannot fail to purify us, to make us stronger, and more clear on our real desires and our true nature. We are tuned up, shined up, and true precious stones under the Master’s hands.

We can trust His revelations, the directions He is giving us, and cherish each moment of progress. We can allow our feet to walk or to run according to the pace at which He is guiding us and moving with us, without fear and without weariness. This is not merely perseverance or stamina or stubbornness. It is about love. Our love for good and God’s love for us means that we rejoice in where we are and where we are going, because we do it with Him, with Love.

Each step with God is a triumph. Each battle is an opportunity to recognize our oneness with infinite power and the presence of divine wisdom. God knows our way, our whole life, for He knows us—who we are and just why He faithfully loves us. He will not fail us, so we cannot fail Him, but continue to honor Him with our obedience, our trust, and our love for Him, for Love, and for Life.

“Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.” (Psalms 51: 12)

Dear Father-Mother-Life, we turn to you with expectation and gratitude. You are our answered prayer and the renewal to our bodies and our lives. You never fail to be the substance and continuity of who we are and what we are able to accomplish and experience. It is because of Your infinite Truth that we are saved, that we not only have a continually renewed life, but also a full joy that can’t be taken from us.

God sets us free with His own Spirit, infusing our lives with every right quality and capacity that is His own nature, and holding us in a place high above the darkness and limitation of the senses. We are always on the receiving end of a refreshing. We are always at the ready for the bounty of God’s blessing and His constant reminder that we are His—perfect and perfectly loved.

Let us be like the Psalmist—quick to turn to God and expectant of His answer of harmony and peace. Let us be ready for joy, poised for a laugh, prepared to be awakened from the nightmare of false beliefs with a relief that we are just as we always were—alive, innocent, free, the accurate reflection of Soul’s beauty, serenity, and energy. Let us recognize and accept that we are saved from needless gloom and ready for glory! Amen!

“Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,” (II Timothy 1:9)

The promise of our salvation and success comes from the lips of Truth. God’s perfect and precise intention for us was set forth in the beginning, when He first created All and found it good, right, done. This identity and purpose has been ours forever. God made us to glorify Him and the Christ came to reveal that fact to us, to show us our calling that can’t be drowned out or obstructed.

We have heard our name announced by Love. We have claimed our inheritance as children of God, and we are urged forth and protected in our cause by divine Life itself. It is not because of what we have done, or even what we want to do, that we are able to succeed and prove His grace and goodness. It is because God’s plan is without flaw or failure. He knows what He is doing with us and for us, and He has established us as His own immortal evidence.

This holy calling of ours, this beckoning to be good and to do good, is not something we must earn or work toward. It is not about sacrifice and toil, but it is simply being who we already are, as God’s own expression. We prove Him because we are the evidence of His allness and goodness. Our love of Love is our calling and this very love is also our guarantee that we are able to do what He requires, to fully please Him, and to be truly satisfied.

“Jealousy is the grave of affection. The presence of mistrust where confidence is due, withers the flowers of Eden and scatters love’s petals to decay.” (Science and Health, page 68)

We have no reason for anything but confidence. We have no cause for jealousy or envy or anything that would mar that sweet and tender relationship with Love and Love’s expression. We must be alert to the subtle suggestions of error that would attempt to talk us into playing devil’s advocate against our own lovely life.

While we may not always find every individual’s behavior absolutely trustworthy at all times, we can know that we are free of any false influences, free of the need to rise to the bait and to follow suit with reactions that do not dignify either us or God. Divine Love is trustworthy, and always has each of its idea’s best interests at heart. No one is at a loss for love because of another’s actions. We always remain within the infinite affection that is spiritual Love, and so we can be calm and listen for the guidance that settles, satisfies, and heals.

Jealousy is unnecessary and suspicion and mistrust do nothing but hide from us our own peace and the gifts that are constantly abounding toward us. Let us not be preoccupied with doubts about ourselves or about others. Instead, let’s dwell faithfully in God’s Mind, as the welcome occupant of His own loving thought, and know that in that place, all are equally loved, equally watched, equally assured by promises that are always kept.

“Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which ye have. For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.” (II Corinthians 8: 11-12)

We can do it! We have enough knowledge and enough substance and enough awareness and enough energy to do what we are called to do. Our readiness of mind and our heart’s preparation by God’s own nurturing is enough to set us well on our way. We are not lacking in anything necessary to do good. We are built for it, and it is only our agreement to it, our commitment and devotion, that is needed to go forth.

There is no need to focus on the negative, to be contemplating what we feel we ourselves lack or what someone else does not have. Our positives, the real qualities of God that we effortlessly and endlessly and uniquely possess and express, are what need our attention and gratitude and use. You are uniquely suited to do what you are called to do. Everything you have and everything you are right now is just what will get the job done.

We can dedicate ourselves to our heart’s desire, our inspired leadings, moment by moment, and see the possibilities and not the limits, the realities of infinite capacity and not the lie of limitation. God has blessed us with wonderful attributes, His very own, and they are sufficient to achieve grand and great and satisfying things for Him and for all.

“Before deciding that the body, matter, is disordered, one should ask, ‘Who art thou that repliest to Spirit? Can matter speak for itself, or does it hold the issues of life?’” (Science and Health, page 181)

Let’s take a pause and ask these questions when discord seems to appear physically or in our experience or that of the world. Can matter, which has no Mind, no Truth, no creative power at all, decide our condition, distort our beauty, disturb our natural and God-given peace? Is there Life in that which is finite, without consciousness, without Spirit, which is Life?

The sense testimony that would try to come to us as a problem with a probable cause, a possible diagnosis, and some likely prognosis, is not reasonable. It doesn’t present something that must be accepted and then dealt with. Instead, we can turn to the voice of Truth, the presentation of Spirit and its eternal testimony, and deny the testimony of that which is mindless and loveless.

We are not pushed around by matter. We can’t be mesmerized by a powerless thing, a nothing claiming to be something. We are the children of God, of Spirit. We can take our stand without fear or doubt and with perfect confidence against the false testifier. Our condition is what God sees and knows and what He feels. Our body can only experience what Truth creates and affirms: perfection, ease, comfort, normalcy, natural function, loveliness, and Life that is as limitless as Spirit.

“O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works. Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that is to come.” (Psalms 71: 17-18)

We have had God’s presence with us since the beginning. He has been faithfully instructing as and we have matured in strength and understanding. We are daily gaining more awareness of His goodness, through every challenge and opportunity, through each new inspiration and victories small and great.

Our youthfulness has celebrated the exuberance and eagerness and innocence of children of God, those who enter into life with wonder and delight, ready to learn and without the strain of doubts, fears, and material education. We remain these children, these learning and leaning ideas, yet perhaps with more wisdom, a broader view, and a greater compassion through our experiences. We remain God’s dear little ones, fresh with promise, and approval and He remains faithful to us forevermore.

God does not see age and deterioration, loss or damage. He grants to each idea a newness that is His own nature, expressing itself naturally and necessarily. In this continued vitality He expresses, we prove Him. We prove God’s presence, power, and sustaining grace through all time and to all people. He never forsakes us, and in Him our youth is mature and our maturity is youthful. His love towards us never changes, and so we are always safe and saved, preserved and adored.

“The only power of evil is to destroy itself. It can never destroy one iota of good.” (Science and Health, page 186)

We must keep attuned to evil’s true nature. The character of evil is flawed. It has no God in it, no Life in it, no Truth to it. Nothing about evil has ever had a real quality that can infringe upon good, upon reality, upon God’s design and purpose and the substance of our grand lives. Evil is not even a temporary power. The belief in mortal mind and its lies does not make it an active entity ever.

We are safe. No sense of evil can overwhelm or impede the protective and preserving activity of Spirit, of Love. Truth endures and is enforcing itself. The presence of active goodness and Love and Life is the necessary absence of anything that would deny it. There is nothing destructive in the Mind of God, the Creator. That which creates, does not destroy.

Goodness is as eternal as God, as the rightness of an idea in His Mind. No quality of God can for an instant be lost because of a lie about it. And the only quality that evil possesses is self-destructiveness. It simply cannot be something when it is nothing. It cannot be presence when God is omnipresence. Any destruction that seems to appear to us can only be error disappearing. The seeming flames and fury do not singe us or any one of God’s right ideas, dwelling in the sanctuary that is divine Love.

“And the Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward: But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.” (Exodus 14: 15-16)

God’s voice is not timid and questionable. It is not a word to ignore or disbelieve. When He urges us forward, to lead, to give, to move out of limit and fear, we have the necessity and natural ability to follow. There is nothing standing in our way. There is nothing too broad or too rough for us to traverse in order to walk in Love’s purpose and perfect result.

We are given the tools to pursue the highest good and to honor and glorify God, good, Truth, in doing so. We have that Christly discernment that can divide the false from the true, and so move forward fearlessly rather than standing transfixed by a sense of obstacles. God beckoned Moses to believe in God and in Himself as God’s expression, rather than whining about what couldn’t be done. Moses trusted and obeyed and a sea of promises opened up for him.

“Just do it!” was the divine demand. Just trust that right stirring that urges us out of self-pity, complacency, and timidity, to the point of utilizing very naturally those gifts of Life and Love that have the power to part waters, open blind eyes, and set us free to claim our promised land of peace, joy, and power.

“The adult, in bondage to his beliefs, no more comprehends his real being than does the child; and the adult must be taken out of his darkness, before he can get rid of the illusive sufferings which throng the gloaming. The way in divine Science is the only way out of this condition.” (Science and Health, page 371)

Being “all grown up” doesn’t mean we are done learning or that we are magically expected to know everything about who we are and what our life is about. Human maturity and experience doesn’t bring us any closer to God’s Truth, the blessed understanding of our eternal and sweet relationship with our Father-Mother-God. We must be willing to be instructed out of the darkness of doubt and fear and burden and into the heaven of our true inheritance.

We are children forever. We are always God’s own ideas, cared for by Him, fed with His ideas and His love, never the leader of our own lives, but always the led, the shepherded, the little dear one in God’s understanding embrace. Let us know that we, just like the children that we are, can join our fellow youngsters in discovering that there is nothing to be afraid of, that the darkness of mortal life is no competition against the smallest light of Science, the Truth that guides and reveals harmony, peace, power.

Let’s not get too big for our britches. Let’s show ourselves the mercy and understanding we would a little child under our care, and be willing to listen and learn, pride quelled and questioning heart expectant of answers. Let’s be willing to give up a sense of personal responsibility, shame, blame or discouragement, and simply listen to our divine Teacher, joyous in the fact that we are always safe with Him and we are always being led to our rightful, bright, beautiful home.

“I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.” (Psalms 27: 13)

Without hope, without faith, without expectation of good in our lives, we would surely give up. Without this natural and ever-present encouragement of Truth and of Love, this vision of victory, we would continue to live a lie, a life of doubt and cynicism and fear. But this is not our fate. We do believe. And Christian Science opens up to us the forever fact that not only is there a heaven, but that heaven is not something that awaits us in some elusive hereafter.

We can “see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.” We are able to perceive and experience God’s creation in our lives, here and now, even in this limited concept we call earth. Jesus came to tell us this, and the forever-assuring Christ delivered the good news to the Psalmists centuries before. Our confidence is in this. We know that we can persist, never give up, and rejoice even when the way isn’t perfectly clear, because we know what we know. We know that Life is God and that His presence and power and love is more than a hope. It is reality.

So agree to and accept what you know to be true, what Truth itself has written in your heart: God is All and His goodness is here and now to be realized. Let this be the staff that keeps you from falling, and the light that keeps you from going into the sleep of discouragement. Our God is actively claiming us, renewing us, expressing His Life through us and His Love to us, right here, right now. Believe and rejoice.

“We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.” (I John 3: 14, 15)

Any lack of love is a killer. Anything less than a loving regard for our brothers and sisters, our kindred of God’s own family, is deadly to our expression of life and its fullness and completeness and peace. Let no sense of hatred abide in your thought. Uncover it and cast it out as if it were a poison to your system, a threat to your well-being or to those that you most love.

Eternal life, a living Life, can only be found in God, Who is Love. Where love does not abide, life is lacking, less seen. We feel depleted, defeated, and unlike our true selves, because, in Truth, we have a natural and abiding love within us, and it extends to all. This love is of God, so it is unconditional and it sees reality, rather than ignorance, personal sense, fear, human confusion or delusion. God’s eye sees the truth of His children, and we, with the heart of Love guiding us, can see this, too. And then life is full, and fully expressed.

God, Truth doesn’t condone misbehavior, unrighteousness, selfishness, or hateful acts among His children. He does not leave those things untouched and unpunished. Love obliterates the belief in separateness, in ignorance, in misunderstanding. It reveals the presence of harmony, always intact. Let us truly live by loving. Love God and His Truth, and know that there is nothing unloving or unlovable in Him. Every idea must necessarily and naturally be worthy of a living, life-giving Love. So, let’s celebrate everlasting life and be full in our love for God and man, ourselves and our own lovely and lovable lives.

“Man is more than a material form with a mind inside, which must escape from its environments in order to be immortal. Man reflects infinity, and this reflection is the true idea of God.” (Science and Health, page 258)

You are not trapped in a body, a physical form, or a circumstance. You are not confined to age or gender or environment. You are not caged in physiology or limited by psychology. You are free, free, free!

Let us recognize and accept with joy and gratitude that we are not yearning for escape from a condition, for we have never been bound by it. Our freedom is based on the infinitude of our expressiveness, that which is our nature, and therefore always ours to know and to feel and to experience. We reflect God’s boundlessness, His qualities expressed everywhere and eternally, permanently, without a single lapse or lag. The life that we desire, the freedom that we crave, is God-given and can’t be withdrawn or hidden by a belief in matter. Nothing will ever make matter real, when Spirit is All and in all.

The limits that the senses would parade before us are not valid before the infinite law and activity of spiritual Love. Nothing can confine the qualities of Life, God, and so we, too are unconfinable. We are capable of all things, and we are free to be free, without waiting for material permission, material compliance, a material death, or a material cure. Our heaven is found in the very fact of our birthright, that freedom which is infinite yet safe and gently and wisely controlled by the divine Mind Who never fails to perfectly Love us.

The apostle says: “For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.” This thought of human, material nothingness, which Science inculcates, enrages the carnal mind and is the main cause of the carnal mind’s antagonism.” (Science and Health, page 345)

The ego, that carnal mind that wants to be master of its own fate, clings to any control it may appear to have. That thought of self as separate from God, as its own creator and subject to its own frailties or strengths, fights for a life it does not have, a power it cannot possibly possess.

We are deceiving ourselves and suffering the consequences of such a blindness, when we assume that the human personal sense of ourselves is anything at all. We are “nothing” in this sense, for matter and separation are untruths. But, the great fact is that we are at one with the something, the grand and noble and perfect and powerful all-presence that is God’s own Being. So this giving up of self is a gain of an individuality that is sparkling with beauty, potential, originality, and limitless life. It expresses God’s qualities naturally rather than those quirks of personality that we would claim make us up and determine our happiness or our hell.

The “carnal mind” wants to keep its false concept alive. It would have us always fighting, up and then down, winning one day, losing the next day, feeling powerful and then overwhelmed, when truly it doesn’t know a thing about us and our life. God is All and we can rest in the fact that we belong to Him. We are nothing of ourselves, but everything in the expansive expression of His Life, Truth and Love.

“Ever since the foundation of the world, ever since error would establish material belief, evil has tried to slay the Lamb; but Science is able to destroy this lie, called evil.” (Science and Health, page 568)

The Lamb, that sweet message of purity, innocence, promise, renewal, is constantly under attack. That which would uplift humanity to a true awareness of God, of that divine inheritance of freedom, seems to be drowned out by the noise of mortal minds, of a belief in egos that must have power, of matter that must have life, of that which makes the simple complicated.

Christian Science is able to destroy this evil by revealing its powerlessness. The Lamb, that which is the pure idea held in the Shepherd’s safe embrace, can’t be slain for it dwells in God, Who is Omnipotent Life. The truth about God and man can’t be assailed or ended, despite the world’s attempts to hide it. Material beliefs would seem to empower shrewdness over wisdom, ambition over humility, competition over oneness, and need over abundance.

But, the Truth protects this innocent Lamb even when it seems to be constantly barraged with accusations and limitations. That gentle idea of Soul’s anointing, has the power of God within it, and it must emerge unharmed and victorious. Let’s not allow the world’s lies to slay our lamb, to turn our sweetness into bitterness or our exuberance into complacency or resignation. Let’s yield to our own innocence and let the Shepherd lead us home to peace, power, and joy!

“The Lord lifteth up the meek:..” (Psalms 147:6)

In meekness there is power. We submit to God’s righteous control over our lives and in that we are blessed with enjoying His intelligent design, harmonious experience, and the recognition that all things are possible. The meekness that releases us to God’s righteousness gives us courage and a victory over evil that is not a fight, but is a surrender to a natural triumph, already accomplished.

To be meek, is to “manifest patience and long-suffering…to endure injury without resentment.” Meekness is not being a passive doormat. It is not tolerating in order to do “the right thing.” It is a conscious awareness that all is well, that an individual or a circumstance does not have any power over God’s law of righteousness and of love. This meekness we can claim is a sweet relief that there is no reason to be riled or disturbed, to feel hurt or maligned, for we know we are loved and that God’s justice does not make any exceptions. We are in the hands of that which is infallibly right to and for all.

Listen for the angel of meekness speaking to you now. Accept that whisper from your heart that wants to let go and let Love be the defining and designing factor in all things. We have been given this meekness and taught well of it by Jesus. His triumphant meekness is our example. Jesus was not a push-over, nor was he arrogant in his confidence. He simply expressed his divine sonship, that glorious gentle power that comes of knowing that he, as we, are one with the Almighty Truth that is Love and so we are at peace!

“For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.” (Isaiah 60:20)

The darkness of fear, discord, war, and disease that seems to enshroud the earth and dim human hope is prepared for the bright and shining light of God’s grace, the Truth of things revealed.  The reality of life is not lost, nor can it be. Life is God, and is light, a natural and necessary wholeness, peace, and a joy that is deep and true.

God, Spirit, alone can bring the light that breaks the illusion and that awakens man to his true nature and the perfect design of the earth that belongs to Him. Material methods and material science can’t uncover heaven’s promises, or lead us home to our bliss. Only God, divine Love, has this power to thoroughly bless, to show us what is real, what is more than simply acceptable, but is truly right and satisfying.

The light of God is our own glory revealed, for He is the brightness of our own being expressed. God put His radiance within us. It is the healing power that resides already with us, never separate, always intact, never dimmed despite the human sense delusions. We are glorious and so is our wonderful earth, because the light of God is infinite, and it is unquenchable, perfect, alive, enduring, and ours!

“In the scientific relation of God to man, we find that whatever blesses one blesses all, as Jesus showed with the loaves and the fishes,—Spirit, not matter, being the source of supply.” (Science and Health, page 206)

God’s relationship to man is scientific, based on fact, provable. This truth of man’s oneness with God, the Source of all good, is our assurance that we can never be in need. The divine Mind is wise and that Mind is Love, so the substance of our supply is always rightly distributed, timely, sufficient. Spirit has no limits, and it always fulfills the law of righteousness and love.

A blessing to one cannot come as deprivation to another. God’s plenty is boundless and active. His purpose is always at hand to be claimed and seen by all. The human senses would always seem to limit our supply to that which is material and therefore finite. It would try to trick us into thinking that there are not enough fishes to go around, not enough money, not enough jobs, not enough men or women, not enough opportunity, not enough talent, not enough health, not enough joy.

But our loaves are love and our fishes are faith. Divine Love recognized as the Source of our good and the substance of it, opens up our lives to the influx, the revelation of that which is not only good but is just right. And this rightness, Mind’s sweet design, means an abundance of perfect good for all. Spirit is flowing with showers of plenty, here, now, and without exception. It’s a fact!

“Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” (I John 4: 4)

The children have taken over and the world is blessed for it! That vibrant, eager, loving, receptivity that is in us, is greater than that egotistical and cynical soul that argues in the world and in human thought. Jesus, the Truth-teller, assured us that our childlikeness was the way into heaven. Our pure and expectant thought and release to God’s care is the answer to heaven on earth, for the earth.

That seeming battle we have within us is a foregone victory for God and so for us, His beloved. That sense of double-mindedness, of guilt versus innocence, of shame versus confidence, of damage versus newness simply can’t continue. The right side must win, for the Christ within always overcomes, it is that which transcends death and anything deathly, anything that is not full of life and truth and love.

We are the little children of God, the sweet ones who win out, bless and save the world, through our very overcoming, through that power that comes by releasing ourselves to the Father-Mother and acting like ourselves, like the children of Soul that we are. Don’t fight the kid in you. Claim it, nurture it, embrace it, enjoy it, and announce with glee that heaven is here, and that all are welcome to come out of the darkness to play!

“Don’t worry about anything, but pray about everything…Then…God will bless you with peace that no one can completely understand. And this peace will control the way you think and feel.” (Philippians 4: 6-7, Contemporary English Version)

Worrying will never get you anywhere. It isn’t powerful and it isn’t useful. It takes us away from the Source of all the answers instead of drawing us to the Truth that saves and heals. We don’t worry not because we are blind to trouble that seems to appear, but because we know the solution is found in prayer, that consecration and expectation that reveals perfect harmony. And this is peace.

I love this translation because it is so clear: less worrying, more praying; more praying, more peace; more peace, more control over thought and feeling. So, we are rescued from our fears, our anxieties, and our burdened thought by ceasing the human ruminating and fretting. To worry is to ply away at something ceaselessly, to concentrate efforts on the problem and not to let it go. And doing that wastes effort and keeps us focused on the problem, unable then to see the presence of the solution.

Let’s keep our grip on God and His thoughts, rather than the useless worry. That peace that comes of prayer, of quiet release to Love and the expectation of help and healing, will usher in all that is needed. It will bring inspiration, human guidance, and turn our eyes away from inward fixation and mesmerism, outward and upward where the available miracles can be seen and accepted into life.

Pray about everything. Nothing is too small. If you find yourself worrying, replace the futility with the usefulness of prayer and find that present and easy and natural blessing which is sweet peace.

“Moral courage is ‘the lion of the tribe of Juda,’ the king of the mental realm. Free and fearless it roams in the forest. Undisturbed it lies in the open field, or rests in ‘green pastures,…beside the still waters.’” (Science and Health, page 514)

The lion-like bravery that comes of claiming and standing with Principle is a freedom and a protection and a peace. That moral courage is not arrogance or blindness to challenge, but a serenity that comes of being at one with the divine purpose, that which is omnipotent, ever-present Love.

We can do the right thing, walk in the right path, doing unto others and doing right for ourselves, and maintain that power that is at the same time quietness and calm. We are strong in feeling our dominion everywhere, because we are shored up by those qualities that have no vulnerability, no argument, which can’t be shaken or accused. Our innocence is our shield from attack, and our faithfulness to Truth, is that sword that is conscious discernment, able to separate fearlessly that which is wrong from that which is not only right, but is just right and loving for all.

There is a calm rest in this moral courage. It is never a burden or a sacrifice. We have claimed who we really are, the very image and likeness and expression of God Himself, and in this there is no striving, but a simplicity of being. We walk in confident certainty, because we feel like ourselves, true to who we are, comfortable in our lives, ready for anything and ashamed of nothing. And this moral strength is not a human accomplishment, but divine grace. It is not gaining or giving up anything. It is acceptance. It is walking with a humble pride that we are God’s own ideal, His representative, and so we are in control, safe, and at peace.

“But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.” (Luke 10: 40-42)

Are you a Mary or a Martha? Perhaps a little bit of both? It seems pretty clear whose behavior Jesus found to be more right and lasting and healing. Mary was poised and ready, open to listening to God’s work, able to be still and to be silent to receive of the blessings of the good news. She recognized that what the Master would reveal to her would more than take care of the nagging human needs of that day and days to come.

Martha, on the other hand, felt burdened by her human goodness, encumbered with cares of the household, of being an appropriate host, a good mortal, presenting a perfect home. Her intentions were good, and we certainly all do need to take care of our daily business as well as be welcoming and kind to others. But we can’t let this constant busy-ness be at the expense of even one healing truth whispering to us, unheard in the din of our own rushing about. Jesus was not angry at Martha for her bustling about, but he, as always, wanted to relieve her of the burden and to show her the way to peace.

How often are we “careful and troubled about many things,” lingering both mentally and with our actions upon the petty details of life, the ins and outs of making sure everything is just right humanly, perfect, in its place? Jesus’ kind alert to Martha was not given to shame her, but to invite her in. To let her know that she, too, could relax and be washed in the spiritual good, the word that would not take away from the perfect setting, but reveal it even more, show the heaven that is never found through human doing and always found through divine grace.

“Sin and sickness will abate and seem less real as we approach the scientific period, in which mortal sense is subdued and all that is unlike the true likeness disappears.”

The false sense that appears so vivid and aggressive, announcing prolific diseases and rampant sinfulness, darkness, and pain is giving itself up. The “scientific period” is that time in which we become conscious of the unreality of evil and the broad and all-encompassing and indisputable reality of good. The solid sense of matter and its control is fading away. Even the material scientists seem now to doubt its substance and are observing the mental and spiritual more closely.

The Christian Scientist is at the forefront of this new era, already ahead of the crowd and prepared to assert and demonstrate that we have already entered our heaven. We must rejoice in this awareness. We can stand firm as the worldly thought catches on and catches up, until it finally lets go of the need to cling to material disappointments and inconclusiveness, and to welcome in the clear and beautiful reality of God’s goodness, Spirit’s ever-presence, and Mind’s omniscience and satisfaction.

Staying with the Truth of being, leading the pack, demonstrating the facts as we understand them, we will bear witness to sin and sickness fading away, its mesmerizing hold being lost and the focus of all attention being drawn more to that which is real and powerfully healing. As we subdue the mortal sense of things individually, there is more light in the world, more of the true likeness appearing and so hope is stirred for all. Such hope opens wide the door to heaven, here and now, universally claimed, understood, and lived.

“Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.” (Romans 13:1)

No person, no government, no organization, no material establishment can overrule God’s reign of Truth and Love. Everything and everyone is subject to God, to the one power, and He alone has the ability and right to ordain and sanction that which rules over creation—over men and nations.

There is no power but that which comes of God, good. Evil has no power, and there is no power in greed, in deception, in ignorance. If all power belongs to God and proceeds from Him, then the only real control, potency, strength, capacity must be wise and loving, must express the nature and substance of its Source.

We are under a reign of benevolence, not tyrannical governing by rulers or bosses or family members who may seem unkind or without understanding. Neither is our body subject to unloving and untrustworthy material systems and limits. Every idea answers to God, to Love, and so even those in human positions of power must obey Him; His justice and judgment are the first and final word. Let us know and rest in the fact that we each are subject to those higher powers, those spiritual truths that are never deposed, and let’s accept the presence of our peace. The powers that be know us and love us!

“Love never loses sight of loveliness. Its halo rests upon its object.” (Science and Health, page 248)

We are holy because we are loved by Love. We are made magnificent and blessed and protected by the Father-Mother’s affection and approval. Her spiritual love for us is our sanctity, our wholeness, our ability to show forth the glory that belongs to the divine nature. God’s constant eye on us is that tender regard that makes us always beautiful, just as a loved one is always lovely to us; just as receiving the love of another makes us feel more adorable, more like ourselves.

God’s halo rests upon us. Accept its presence. Know who you are, what divine Love has caused you to be. You have a natural hue of holiness about you. Bathed in God’s light, ordained by His approving smile, you have an angelic presence and power. You have a gentle energy and a natural authority. You walk with God’s blessing on you, your hand always in His, your life the effortless expression of the love He has for you, His own great idea.

Don’t let anyone try to knock your halo off! Don’t accept a lesser image of yourself than God, Truth, sees. Don’t take your own halo off, either or reject it. You can keep it on and still be humble, for you didn’t put it there, God and His love did. So wear it as you would a gift from a loved one—with gratitude, proudly, and with an awareness that it is fitting, right, and yours to keep!

“A mother’s affection cannot be weaned from her child, because the mother-love includes purity and constancy, both of which are immortal. Therefore maternal affection lives on under whatever difficulties.” (Science and Health, page 60)

In the human sense, a mother’s love may appear to come and go, to be variable depending on personality traits, experiences, tendencies. A mother may not be doting and consistent in pouring love out on a child. But a mother’s love still remains in spite of behavioral reactions and responses and separations, because there is that bond that expresses that oneness with the child, the ideal that comes of God, the true Mother of all.

Let’s recognize that true Mother-love, and see its evidence everywhere. Our Mother, God, is always consistently loving, always knowing the whereabouts of Her child (physically as well as in thought), understanding the child’s needs, whether that child be a little one or a mother herself. The protecting affection of divine Motherhood has no bounds, no limits, no distance or separation. It does not lose strength as a child grows to adulthood, passes through experiences, or misbehaves.

We are always being mothered by divine Love. Our children and our parents are receiving that same tenderness and wisdom, that unbreakable devotion, that pure unconditional loving care always, just as we are receiving it. So we are all brothers and sisters, loved equally by a Mother with boundless affection to give, and we are safe in that perfect, unifying, satisfying embrace.

“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.” (Matthew 7:15)

False prophets can appear in many forms. They may or may not be malicious or greedy or charlatans. They may look benign and harmless, or seem inspired and inspiring,  but in the end disturb our peace, engender more fear, and keep us caged when the goal is freedom.

We must and can be alert to these alluring individuals and ideas. We don’t need to be paranoid about it, lacking trust and expectation, but we can listen and rely on that inner voice that tells us there is a cause for a pause. We can receive gratefully any good ideas from individuals without turning them into our savior, our better, our mediator with God. We can be open to other forms of worship or different opinions about life, without assuming that what works for one is really right for us.

Perhaps the most persistent and most accepted “wolf” is that presentation of the material senses. The physical picture and the world’s accompanying thought on this unreality can lure us into a dangerous den. The testimony of matter will always be a false prophet. Only Spirit speaks Truth, and it will never lead us into danger, into fear, into lack of peace, into anger or frustration or pain. The wolves of sense are a pack of lies!

So, we can be aware of the disguises and reject those liars from our thought, making room instead for the true prophets, those angel voices that assure, awaken, and heal.

“…the Lord made me have dominion over the mighty.” (Judges 5: 13)

There is nothing too strong or powerful or insistent that we cannot triumph over it. God gave us dominion over those seeming powers of matter and of evil. We are never weak victims. We are never destined to simply roll over and take all that life, time, circumstance, human limiting opinion would throw at us.

The Lord gave you and me, very specific and intentional dominion. There is nothing that can oppose God’s goodness and overrule or run over His law of love. So, we, as His natural expression and His beloved, are also capable of putting down those aspersions on our peace, those unnatural impositions on His order, His rightness, His harmony, that which constitutes our blessed and protected life.

Don’t be wimpy about your dominion. Even at what seems to be your weakest moment, you are bigger than the most aggressive evil. You have this power not because you are humanly bold or brave, but because God demands His greatness be seen and expressed. He expects and accepts nothing less than His Life, that which proves His loving Principle and radiates His nature as well as His reign and tender control over all. Recognize and utilize with firmness and faith your supremacy over errors great and small. God granted us full dominion at the beginning, at the origin, and He has never taken away that right, our victory. We are on top of it all, small and mighty!

“The divine Principle of all expresses Science and art throughout His creation, and the immortality of man and the universe.” (Science and Health, page 507)

Our divine Principle, God, is all that is right and good. He is the primary and only Source of all that is expressed. From Principle proceeds every right thought and action, all that constitutes reality, substance, life. This Principle is Soul. Within Soul every beautiful and pleasing and fruitful thing has its origin and its fullness and is ready for perfect expression.

And so we see. We hear. We move and feel and love. The universe is constantly and rightly showing forth that which God saw fit to make. It announces His precision and safety, His consistency and reliability, His infinite variety and His sweet simplicity. That which regulates all life, this Science of goodness and Truth and Love, is forever being faithfully upheld and perpetuated. Nothing can impede this harmony.

And Principle’s boundless fullness is irrepressible. It must be expressed in ways beyond the “practical.” It extends into those life-giving ideas that are art and music, artistry and poetry, drama and dance, the creativity and beauty that touches us in places that we cannot articulate, because they are beyond the worldly. God’s spiritual creation misses nothing and embraces all. Every moment we are bearing witness to God’s word and works, His ideas, His brilliance, His surprises. Every detail of being is His and ours to have, to know, and to love.

DAY. The irradiance of Life; light, the spiritual idea of Truth and Love.” (Science and Health, page 584)

Our day, our newborn experience each dawn, must necessarily express that radiance that is God, Life, Truth and Love. This day is God’s, and its “irradiance” is that sense of a right energy and light that fills the very space in which it exists. It is a sort of perpetual and perpetuating life that illumines the moment from within it.

So, isn’t our day not so much about what we are about to embark upon, as what forever exists, what shines forth out of a completeness, wholeness, and omnipotence that God Himself forever maintains? It is then simply an unquenchable Source of power that demonstrates its boundless beauty and life through our being, through our awakening, through our acceptance, and our willingness to be at one with it.

Truth and Life are a constant generating source. They continue to both preserve all ideas and cause them to be active, multiply, flourish, and progress. This day is not in mortal hands or in the hands of time to be lost or wasted, unproductive or traumatic. This day, the Day that radiates the fullness and love that is Spirit, God, is everlasting and complete. It begins and ends in contentment, for completeness is the nature of God and of all that He is and does.

Wake up and know that this day brings a natural and self-maintained influx of light and life that is ours to live, to give, and to rejoice in!

“Treatises on anatomy, physiology, and health, sustained by what is termed material law, are the promoters of sickness and disease. It should not be proverbial, that so long as you read medical works you will be sick.” (Science and Health, page 179)

Sounds kind of like “ignorance is bliss”, right? Well, in a way that is what is meant here. Our ignorance of matter and its lying propositions, disquisition, and inquisitions against man and his perfection and peace, can keep us from the suffering these suppositions would expect and describe. We can understand enough to be aware and conscientious in our lives and dealings with others, without taking in the whole ball of sticky wax.

The fear engendered by researching and ruminating on symptoms and their causes and phases, is harmful to our well-being. This unnecessary preoccupation sends us deep into matter and mortal mind, when our solution, our safety, our healing is found in Spirit, that which is not only good, but also perpetually true.

Our thought is our sense of things. What our thought dwells upon or allows in is expressed in our body, in our sense of what we are and who we are. When our thought gets involved with organs and functions, disease and material cures, we assume a body that is full of material substance instead of claiming our true body, the one that is untouchable, built of God’s goodness and perfection, and controlled flawlessly and lovingly by Him.

No, medical books, websites, or physicians can cause what God hasn’t caused. But, a mind filled with trouble is troubled, and we express as we think. So, let’s discover the truth in spiritual works and words, in prayer and praise, and live our naturally free and healthy lives!

“And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the Lord; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.”  (Isaiah 25:9)

Be firm and faithful to God’s promise. Even when we seem to be waiting for Him, for the pure evidence of His goodness and power, we can be grateful and glad that in truth, we already have it all. We can stand expectant of the awareness of His blessing, our salvation from the belief that we can ever for an instant be separate from His grace.

Every moment gives us plenty to lean on, to rejoice in, and to grow from. We have right now the ability to rest in His Love and to remain the child of His care. We can wait and know that our full triumph is at hand, for Truth does not lie and its promise is harmony, perpetual goodness, peace and understanding. Our wait is accompanied by occasions for patience, for purification, for surrender to the Almighty and the magnitude of His Love and the necessity of His purpose.

Quiet the human will’s rushing and wait with that sweet expectancy that comes of knowing that we are at home already, and that the gifts of tomorrow’s new day will reveal that which is suitable, timely, and right. We can wait on, rest in, rely on, that Love that loves us every moment and with fullness, and begin the victory song!

“I the Lord do keep it; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day.” (Isaiah 27:3)

The Lord is our Caretaker. God is our efficient and ever-present guardian and His care for us is without lapse or deficiency. He watches His own ideas. His Mind holds each thought dear and encourages its expression forth into bloom. God, Soul, is the constant Gardener, that one Who knows well each of His seeds and blossoms, for He has caused each one, with intention and love.

We are never left to fend for ourselves. We are guarded by the Almighty Truth, kept safe from that which would try to discourage us or cause us to feel overwhelmed. He is always watering us, giving us the substance of His ideas and the evidence that those ideas are present and powerful. God’s hand is upon each of us, caressing and settling, calming and assuring. He never leaves His watch, and His vigil is full of concentrated devotion. We are safe.

Nothing can harm us in this garden of God’s planting and cultivating. We can be active in our days and yet never out of the safe confines of His infinite garden of beauty and abundance. We can rest in our nights, when the darkness falls literally or figuratively, and know that during those times the growth continues, and the Caretaker watches, protects, and smiles with us at the new loveliness that dawn will reveal.

“To the burdened and weary, Jesus saith: ‘Come unto me.’ O glorious hope! there remaineth a rest for the righteous, a rest in Christ, a peace in Love. The thought of it stills complaint; the heaving surf of life’s troubled sea foams itself away, and underneath is a deep-settled calm.” (Message for 1902, by Mary Baker Eddy p. 19)

The thrashing waves of sense are ready for a calming. The burdens that seem to weigh us down are ready to be lifted, and our peace revealed. That true serenity is always ours to know, and, in fact, it is always our true state of being. We can claim that sweet gentleness within, and know that we need seek no farther for it than our own heart of hearts. Even the thought of it settles us.

We do have our rest at hand, our comfortable steadiness and safety readily available. This irresistible Christ is within us, naturally and necessarily calming fear and showing us our security. Seek and find that calm that is deep-settled, that endures within us even when the senses and human fears want to rile us and wrestle us down. We have that pure peace, it is always ours and we can recognize and claim it in spite of the lies of mortal mind, because we know the Christ-promise is true.

And knowing that our God is indeed All and always with us, we discover our hope. And our hope is glorious, uplifting us to the true consciousness, that real perception of heaven here and now, peaceful and powerful in its peacefulness. The sweet voice within that says “all is well” can be heard and accepted. All is well. Christ tells the Truth, and all the raging, foaming, fury of material sense must obey, be still, and we must have our righteous rest in Love.

“Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.” (John 20: 29)

Thomas needed to see materially in order to believe the truth of Jesus’s divine sonship and of life spiritual and immortal. He was not a bad apostle because of his doubting and questioning, but Jesus did admonish him in a way for believing that only the senses could report to him reality.

Jesus understood that believing spiritual sense rather than and even in spite of the material senses and their presentations, was a blessing. He saw those apostles and other followers who could simply honor the Truth because it spoke in their hearts and then stay with that in praise and gratitude, were gaining the greater good for it. Their spiritual perception, their soul-senses giving them the assurance and inspiration, was a blessing without measure or condition, and it set them free.

Let us show the doubting Thomas in ourselves and in others some mercy as they continue to ask for active evidence of heaven in body and in life. This doubt itself can lead to answers to that essential and eventual clarity. But let us also seek to quell that need to have material proofs of what matter has no capacity to prove—Truth, Life, and Love. We have not seen Jesus in the flesh, and yet we know he gave us the supreme demonstration of life everlasting. So, simply believe, and be blessed.

“As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.” (Psalms 18: 30)

Our protection is God’s faithful word. His goodness and love, His presence behind us and before us, has kept us shielded forever from harm, from trouble, from accusation. God knows us and He knows the way in which He takes us. He knows the road we traveled and the road we go forth on today. He has set all things down in a perfect way, and He will never allow us to stray into danger, out of Life, Truth and Love.

We can rest in His awareness, His conscious conscientiousness, His guard of our goodness and our lives. That buckler, that shield, remains always ours to hide behind, as well as to fight with. The Truth deflects the arrows of error. We remain secure, for God is secure and we are never separate from His care, from His presence, from His Mind and Life. We are safe.

Let’s trust that tender Father-Mother-Guardian to keep us perfect, innocent, and always on the right path. He has our backs, our fronts, our everything! We are never alone fighting an enemy nor wrestling with the fear of one. Divine Love, forever faithful, is with us, embracing, defending, and uplifting us to the realization of our present and eternal victory!

“…God is all, therefore…matter is nothing beyond an image in mortal mind.” (Science and Health, page 116)

Matter simply has no place or ability to be anything besides a delusion, illusion. God is All and in all. He is not made of matter nor does He express in quality a single limitation. Material substance must always be finite. Spiritual substance (reality) is always infinite, always available, always right.

Mortal thinking—that which denies the Truth but never changes it—would prop up another god to justify its fears and doubts and pains and limits. Matter is that god and it is just as unreal and powerless as were the graven images that were worshipped in days of old. Matter and its so-called laws have nothing to do with reality, and so they only apply to their own nothingness, never to man and his nature, worth, and life.

Leave the material image to mortal mind and let it have its dream. You are not a mortal. You are in possession of an awakened mind, one which knows God’s own consciousness, the very expressed idea of the universe. We are aware of Spirit and we know that its laws are loving, freeing, and supreme over all. The illusion has no power to change God’s intelligence and love, and so it isn’t an image we ever need to dwell on or accept. Instead, let’s realize our unconfined nature, our spiritual life, and that which is fully awake to blessings and ready always for gratitude and joy!

“Mortals develop their own bodies or make them sick, according as they influence them through mortal mind. To know whether this development is produced consciously or unconsciously, is of less importance than a knowledge of the fact.” (Science and Health, page 199)

Mortal mind claims a material body and gives it characteristics, conditions, and abilities. Matter is a creation of mortal mind, and so that physical sense we may accept for ourselves is just a figment of that false mind’s imagination. When we accept mortal thoughts and ourselves as mortals, we may seem to experience the results of those fears and limits.

But we can know ourselves truly and so express those bodies that belong wholly to the consciousness of Mind, that which does not merely imagine, but which knows and expresses truly. In this acceptance of our immortal Mind as knowing every right thing concerning us, we are able to “develop” our bodies in a way that evidences the truth about us, that spiritual perfection that is here to be realized.

Let’s not get hung up on whether or not we are subconsciously or consciously accepting a lie about our identity. It only leads to an unnecessary preoccupation with mortal mind, wherein there is no healing element at all. Be aware only that the mortal mind would seek to present to us something that is entirely false, based on a premise that begins with a lie and must end with an untruth. Let’s give up this belief in a mortal mind and a mortal body altogether, and let ourselves be what our Mind made us to be, and keeps us to be—perfect, harmonious, beautiful, and at peace.

“That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;…And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.” (I John 1: 1, 4)

The revelation of God’s Truth in our lives is a precious thing. We have been listening and so we are hearing that Word of life that is the very holy message that the disciples heard and that Jesus expressed. His proof of the unreality of material life and the everlasting nature of Spirit as Life is ours to hold and behold.

We, too, have received that healing truth of being and touched it, grasped it and felt it touch our own hearts and relieve our bodies. And we, with the disciples, know that it was true from the beginning and that we are still listening. The simple Principle, Truth, God, out of which all life proceeds, continues to remain firm and fixed, provable, reliable and completely loving. We have Jesus’s example, as well as the apostles’ faith and continued proofs as our own starting point.

That which the apostles heard and saw they could not contain or hoard. And their sharing was not in order that we struggle and be uncomfortable, toil and worry over it all. They shared with us what they knew (and we listened) so that our “joy may be full.” They echoed Jesus’ words and wishes in this. It is for our joy that we have witnessed the Christ, the practical Truth that walks the earth today through our own demonstrations, in our own loving and good lives, and in our grateful and open hearts.

“Mind is not helpless. Intelligence is not mute before non-intelligence.” (Science and Health, page 191)

Divine Mind is wise and active. Divine Mind does not remain silent before error or allow ignorance to continue. The intelligence that is God, the one and only Mind that made all things, does not go blank in the face of evil, sickness, or discord. It does not become fearful and jump to conclusions based on the lies that matter tells.

Mind is our ever-present help and its intelligence is immediate action. Divine Mind’s wisdom is Love that removes the ignorance and fear and reveals the harmony at hand. We have this divine intelligence forever as our very own, for we are forever at one with God. We have this natural and powerful discernment of reality, and a certainty that God is All and in all.

Matter (non-intelligence) can’t make conditions for us or speak louder than the Truth. That which is conscious conscientiousness does not miss a detail in maintaining and sustaining perfection. We needn’t agree to a helpless mind that stands mute before the bluster of matter’s accusations. Instead, let us realize that active and potent Presence that knows all and knows that it is well.

“Jesus’ life proved, divinely and scientifically, that God is Love, whereas priest and rabbi affirmed God to be a mighty potentate, who loves and hates.” (Science and Health, page 42)

Jesus knew God truly. This God with which he was always consciously at one, made it possible for him to heal spontaneously, to teach with a wisdom that has held up through the centuries and across cultural boundaries, and to ultimately prove that life was deathless and immortal. He was the Messiah, the messenger of that Christ-ideal, because he declared Truth, and that Truth was Love.

The religious leaders preceding Jesus had a different understanding of God. They certainly recognized God as One and as powerful. They worshipped with their obedient lives and according to their highest sense of religious practice. They saw God’s might and honored it. But the character of the Almighty was still more or less based on a human model, a king who was sometimes good and sometimes despotic, who alternately loved and hated, brought war and brought peace.

Jesus knew God to be Love alone and that Love to be All. He understood His Father-Mother not as an incomprehensible ruler, one Who could not be fully understood, one Who was variable and capable of hate. Jesus knew God was pure Love, and this is why he was able to prove all that he did, to heal, to overcome lack, to still storms, and to demonstrate death conquered. It was the understanding of divine Love’s presence that made this all possible, and this same God that makes all things possible today. We can always trust Love to be Love.

“For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:” (II Corinthians 5:2)

Our most inward selves yearn for spiritual being. Our hearts continue to hope for that which truly satisfies and settles us into ourselves. Mortals may seek material things, material accomplishments, material success and possessions. But this seeking can never deeply satisfy us. We want more and we deserve more.

The spiritual clothing is that heavenly vesture that is always whole and holy, always sufficient to warm us and beautify us, because it has no flaw in it, no limit to it. And this heavenly garment fits us, for it is the very truth about us. It is God’s graceful protecting and adorning, His idea created to perfection and carried out with elegant ease.

The material body that we seem to be confined to has nothing to do with the “house,” that temple of being that is our true abiding place. This state of being contains every right quality, with no possibility of loss, a precision that assures comfort as well as loveliness and joy. This house, this heavenly body and life, is a perfect fit and our only real condition and status. We yearn for this place, this perfect oneness with God, and our plea is met with the Truth: you are there!

“Time tables of birth and death are so many conspiracies against manhood and womanhood.” (Science and Health, page 246)

Do we really need to buy into and support the conspiracies against us? Is it wise to support these accusations with our fear and preoccupation? Isn’t it much more right and freeing and satisfying to deny the validity of those limits and really live our lives, fully, thoroughly, and joyfully?

The time tables that mortal mind would set up and the human thought would believe are boxing us into a corner needlessly. The sense of man and woman as being born into a material life only to struggle through it with a mere hope of prolonging it, condemns each moment to fear and limitation. Our birth date does not define our life, our well-being, our daily promise of success and health and goodness and fullness of being.

Let us look away from the phases of mortal life (set up by a liar) and claim the truth of our immortal life, that which is consistently one with God and true to His ideal. We are established and governed not by the stars, by a trip around the sun, or by a material picture of what life must be for us at this or that stage of experience. Divine Life is not boxed in by time, but annuls that concept in its own infinity. We are free to dismiss those conspiracy theories as irrational, give up the paranoia, and take hold of the Truth of our glorious and glorified and limitless life and rejoice!

“Tenderness accompanies all the might imparted by Spirit.” (Science and Health, page 514)

We are perfectly loved. Spirit, God, that infinite power and Life and substance and activity, is loving each of us with mightiness and with tenderness. All bases are covered. We can rest in the assurance that nothing can ever attack and damage us, God’s own beloved. We can also rejoice and be peaceful, for that mighty protector is also our dearest friend, the one Whose sweet nearness soothes and calms and heals.

Our strength is spiritual and so it is infinite, available, active and unimpaired. We can draw upon that power at all times, rely on its energy and ability, and go forth in confident expectation. We are never alone in any situation. We have all the intelligent authority that God has, that wisdom that overpowers ignorance and banishes fear in the rational reality of Life as Love.

And that strength never comes to us in a way that is jarring or disturbing or unnatural to us. This power is Love itself, divine Love, perfect Love, so it comes with that tender kindness, that gentleness, that naturalness that is peaceful and assuring. The caress accompanies the might. His strong defending arm is also embracing us. We are safe and strong and serene. We are perfectly loved.

“And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: And I will give him the morning star.” (Revelation 2: 26, 28)

With persistence and by our progressive triumphs, we gain dominion over our experience, influence in the world, and the very “morning star.” It is by our constancy with God, our devotion to the pursuit of good and life and love, that we are able to claim that true power that is ours by divine inheritance.

We can’t truly claim and feel the glow of that “morning star,” the very light of our day and control over experience, without that humble yearning, that overcoming that comes of seeing through the evils that would bring darkness, and utilizing the brilliant light that is God alone. Divine Love enforces its ideals, requires our obedience, and the very trials that would beset us are the victories, the wisdom gained, that gives us access to the morning star, the dawn breaking on our true and immortal life.

That light of Christ is ours as we patiently trust, loving our God and His good no matter what presentations the devil would try to build up before us. We gain our heavenly perspective by spiritual growth, by a willingness to lose our personal and willful sense of dominion, for that great control and security and power that comes of leaving life and its appearances to Mind and to the healthy sunlight of Truth. Stay honest and true. Stay faithful and expectant, and open up your heart to receive the morning star!

“The senses of Spirit abide in Love, and they demonstrate Truth and Life. Hence Christianity and the Science which expounds it are based on spiritual understanding, and they supersede the so-called laws of matter. Jesus demonstrated this great verity.” (Science and Health, page 274)

Breathe in with your spiritual senses. Feel and touch and taste that which is Love’s own nature expressing itself to you and through you. The material senses can’t report love to us, or life as it truly is. The have only the awareness of their own limitations. Spirit expresses and experiences with a fullness and an infinitude that can never be grasped by the physical, but which can be glimpsed in small measure there by God’s grace.

Jesus’s demonstrations of abundance, deathlessness, an absolute defiance of material laws of time and nature, proved the spiritual senses to be the powerful ones. His every act drew on God’s spiritual testimony, his own awareness of what Love was saying and doing and being. And this spiritual understanding defied material testimony and revealed perfect harmony in its place.

True Christianity is a reliance on Spirit, an abiding in divine Love as Jesus did. It is checking our material senses at the door and entering into the closet that acquaints us intimately with our spiritual senses, that understanding of Truth that is found in our hearts, and which, when accepted, can be demonstrated with certainty and satisfaction in our lives. Breathe in with your spiritual senses the true breath of Life—Truth, Love, peace, reality, immortality.

“Working and praying with true motives, your Father will open the way.” (Science and Health, page 326)

Our motives are our entry into the Promised Land and our protection along the way. We can always look to what our motivation is to see whether we will truly end up where we want to go, that place of completeness, satisfaction, and peace. Our true motives in working and praying are found in our hearts, in what we are loving and cherishing and what is compelling us forward.

Whether we are seeking a position or seeking companionship or seeking justice, we can search our hearts for our true guiding intention and see whether we are on the right track. If fear motivates us, or self-justification, or anger, or desperation, we would be best to regroup and rethink, to listen for God’s truer voice of calm reason and trustworthy protection and guidance. We can, by knowing our safety in God, give up the sense of personal need for the recognition of the abundance of God’s presence.

And so we can purify our motives if they are less than good and loving. Likewise, when we may feel at times unable to carry something out sufficiently, mistaken or ignorant about what we are doing, we can look to our good motives and find solace there. We don’t need to know human perfection in our actions, but the love behind our actions keeps us safe and assures our progress. God’s Principle is the one that works, and it is Love. Discovering and claiming this in all things, our blessed way will open before us and our hopes will be realized in peace.

“Nerves are not the source of pain or pleasure.” (Science and Health, page 211)

Because God alone is the source and center of all things, of being itself, of life and action and thought, this power can’t be found in a nerve, a physical conduit. Spiritual sense alone can report truth to the body. A nerve is not a mechanism for spirit to communicate, and it can’t tell us what our life it about, where our joy and comfort are. A nerve and the organs it reaches cannot have power if God has it all.

So, let us claim that direct and immediate communication of our well-being from divine Mind to its own ideas, its own expression. You are the result of God’s communication, the very evidence of His perfect and unimpaired Mind and motion and function and living. All that God emanates forth is in keeping with His Love, His goodness, His Life. The physical sense of anatomy can neither help nor hinder God’s direct assurance of peace and our immediate evidencing of that perfection.

Dismiss the belief that a mortal mind holds the issues of life and that a physical form demonstrates life or lack of it. All Life belongs to God. All function and action and condition are in God and revealed in what He communicates of Life, that Life which is right and enduring and all-loving. A false sense of anatomy can’t overtake the forever facts of Being, of God and His ideas, always at one, and immediately and always painless and at peace.

“By the truthful arguments you employ, and especially by the spirit of Truth and Love which you entertain, you will heal the sick.” (Science and Health, page 418)

We are able to bring out healing, discover reality and harmony, by our reliance on God and His Truth. Through our arguments affirming Truth and its Principle of Love, we can put down and put out those contrary suggestions. By claiming and holding to what is true, what is right, what is God and His creation, we displace the belief in error with the consciousness of the facts, the reality of ever-present harmony.

And we most especially are able to heal and save through the spirit we bring to the need at hand. It is by that awareness and utilization of Truth and Love, ever-available as the very substance of our being, that we are truly able to do healing works. The word alone can’t accomplish much. It can educate, illuminate, but without divine Love in our hearts, it has no real power to save. For it is the Spirit, God, that heals.

We need to be clear in our arguments, to know and articulate truth aloud or in thought as precisely as we can. Our understanding must be utilized. But, with Truth and Love behind our works, even any lack of precision and understanding can be educated through the proof of healing, God’s presence felt. The inspiration and receptivity needed emerge naturally when Truth and Love move with us and within us. And healing necessarily results.

“In obedience to the divine nature, man’s individuality reflects the divine law and order of being. How shall we reach our true selves? Through Love.” (Miscellaneous Writings, page 104)

How often do we approach an understanding of ourselves through Love? Isn’t it more often that we delve into discovery with a judgmental attitude, self-condemnation, analysis, or self-justification. Our real nature and being, that individuality that God created and expresses non-stop, can’t fully shine without Love’s light awakening it.

This Love Mrs. Eddy talks about is God, divine Love. His tender and powerful Principle keeps our real identity preserved in its true form, as the very reflection and beloved of the greatest Love there is. The real you is always embraced in that divine Love, and remains intact and beautiful and right and lovable within that gentle place. We can’t help but be who God made us to be, and there is no power that can barge through God and muck up that good and lovely identity.

So, let us approach this full knowledge of ourselves in the only way that has any Truth or power to it. Let us love our way to knowing ourselves. Let us look to our sweet child heart and embrace it with the tender, merciful sweetness we deserve. Let us discover who we really are, and do it now. There is nothing to be afraid of, no demon to find there, only divine Love’s adored idea, the one who was, is, and ever will be innocent, powerful, right, and free.

“The mythologic theory of material life at no point resembles the scientifically Christian record of man as created by Mind in the image and likeness of God and having dominion over all the earth.” (Science and Health, page 531)

The record of our lives includes no myths, no dreamed up explanations having no reliable source and no established conclusion. We are not the spawn of Adam and Eve, nor the result of generations of guilt, punishment, pain, material lack, and loss of peace.

We are, likewise, not governed by the gods and goddesses of myth or of mortal mind’s imagination. We have one God, and He is not a material ruler, having governance over a limited sphere. Nature and weather are not gods. The stars are not gods. Human love is not a god. And the material body, a material economy, medical systems and practices, are not gods to be feared or obeyed. There is one God, one Principle, One Creator and One Keeper, and He is over all and in all. He does not share His control and never has.

Our record is spiritual, from forever until forever. We began with the dominion that comes of our divine heritage. Our perfect Life has nothing to do with the mortal picture. We are not a generation encumbered or limited by mere beliefs about man’s origin. We are the very reflection of God’s Truth, His Life, and His Love. We are a generation of free men and women, ready to celebrate our lives with gratitude to God!

“God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are bound with chains:” (Psalms 68:6)

God, divine Love, has assured us that we will never be alone. He has set us in families, brought us together through love and common heritage of good, to dwell together and to experience true freedom, unchained to a mere human sense of life and love. Spirit does not create material lineage, nor limit us by this sense of blood ties, genealogy, or even geography.

We are set in families, united with those of like heart and mind, and those may or may not be human family members. God knows what we need and who we are. He has made us to His own standards, to express His highest purpose, and to prove His Father-Motherhood of all. As His children, solely, we are fathered and mothered with the tender and effective and protective love that provides us with every human need.

Our human families may be loyal till the end, may always be with us in purpose and intention. And, even if they are not, we can certainly love them because they have been a part of our lives and one of God’s own children. But, we may leave our mothers and brothers and sisters and fathers, as Jesus said, to follow Christ, Truth, and be loyal to what goes deeper than blood in us. As we do this, we will never be left without companioning, care, closeness. Our true family must necessarily be with us, for Love does not separate, it unites.

You will never be alone, deserted, or orphaned. Your Father-Mother-God has kept you in His family faithfully, in His heart which is pure Love. All the love there is, is right here with you in that happy home of His!

“We must look where we would walk and we must act as possessing all power from Him in whom we have our being.” (Science and Health, page 264)

We must keep the true destination before us. We must stay focused on where we want to go, where God is beckoning us, and take each step forward with steadiness as well as energy. When we remember that our aspirations are after Truth and peace and not after material things or reaching some human goal for happiness and success, we walk with God and our steps are sure.

Our whole life is in God, so when we settle into this presence and glory, we are right on track. Life is calling us into its joys, its peace and satisfaction and productivity. Knowing this and accepting it, we can see more clearly what is before us, and what can willingly be left behind. We can recognize and utilize our calling, for it is daily singing us forward, encouraging us onward, and touching the lives of those around us, even when we are not conscious of it. Being at one with God’s purpose is power. And it satisfies.

Act as if that power is yours, for it is. We can’t simply know the Truth of Being and continue to act as if we are weak and wandering, sick and sinning. We must claim and utilize the power that we possess through our oneness with God. We must move in our goal rather than toward it–marching in God’s goodness and love with vigor and expectancy, sure of Life because we are sure of God and His presence, certainty, and love.

“Whatever is material is mortal. To the five corporeal senses, man appears to be matter and mind united; but Christian Science reveals man as the idea of God, and declares the corporeal senses to be mortal and erring illusions.” (Science and Health, page 477)

Sense testimony does not communicate accurate information. The appearance of man as a material structure with a personal material mind inside, called brain, running things, knowing things, feeling things, does not correspond with the true spiritual testimony about man, about you and me. God is Truth and there is no other.

Christian Science unveils man as he really is, as our acute spiritual senses attest. The spiritual reality of ourselves that God is constantly announcing to us as our very being, does not argue with the material senses for a place of authority. It stands as the uncontestable truth of who we are and how we are. The material senses waver, wonder, wander, question and doubt. They have no solid voice or factual basis on which to rely.

Matter can’t be intelligent, can’t be Life, Truth, or Love. For God, Spirit, is all those things solely and exclusively. And so, the material must necessarily obey the spiritual facts, for immortality defeats mortality, infinitude defeats finiteness, and divine Love rules and conquers all.

“Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.” (Psalms 19:14)

Heavenly Father, I would obey you in all things. I would honor you with my words and my heart’s intents. I want only to the living expression of your Love, your rightness, your Principle of being. I will listen and respond as you guide me. I will assure that every word dignifies you, and that my quiet thoughts and prayers are free of self-righteousness, fear, doubt, and false responsibility.

The psalmist’s prayer is ours to utilize, for we, too, know that God is our full strength, our ready redeemer—the One that keeps us safe from harm and Whose love always sets us free, brings us home. So we pray that we are pleasing to Him, that our own prayer, our treatment of ourselves and others, is according to His highest design, His Truth, His Principle, His own promise and expectation.

And we can assure that our prayers and our lives are aligned with Love’s own law by consciously claiming that we can do and be nothing less. We are God’s own image, His reflection, and He is our Mind, our Life, the one Ego that is always clear, and right, and powerful. So, we honor Him in our words and in our hearts because it is divinely natural for us to do so, because we simply can’t do anything else. Our prayer is His word already written in our hearts, His light already glowing there, and His healing impulse always and already meeting every need with precision, power, and peace.

“If you wish to know the spiritual fact, you can discover it by reversing the material fable, be the fable pro or con, –be it in accord with your preconceptions or utterly contrary to them.” (Science and Health, page 129)

The spiritual fact is the exact opposite of the material lie. Matter has no mind to create, so it can only lie about the Truth. But even the lie can help bring us the facts, the peace, a resolution, for we can discover the Truth by reversing the lie, by revealing the divine antonym that continues to be the true definition of being.

Where lack would appear, we are always able to claim the inverse, abundance. We can see and realize the presence of this Truth in spite of what seems appears to be. We can trust that active Truth in spite of what our past experiences may have led us to believe. The law of God is always the living good that is really going on. Likewise, we can take any false sense of deterioration, of sickness, of confusion, and see in its place the spiritual fact, the very opposite. And so, we can immediately claim wholeness and permanence, health and life, wisdom and clarity, because these qualities are forever true and forever and now ours.

So, let the error or evil that may appear be an occasion for celebration! It is a blessed and God-protected opportunity to get an even clearer definition of what our life is truly about, and so to live it. It is to stop living mythically and start living majestically!

“Under divine Providence there can be no accidents, since there is no room for imperfection in perfection.” (Science and Health, page 424)

The perfect governing care of God, of divine Providence, leaves no room for anything accidental, anything that is not in accord with His design for His Life. God made all to be perpetually perfect and His watch over all leaves nothing to be lost or disturbed. He is faithful in His control and nothing can interrupt that perfection and harmony.

All is the substance of God. Everything is made of His qualities and by His intention. There is nothing abnormal, out of sync, out of control, or random about the quality of His Life, our own Life, all there is and can be. Divine action denies any mortal contrary action. Perpetual creation denies the opportunity for destruction. Perfection is the law and the permanent condition of all.

There is no chance occurrence, no circumstance or accident that can disturb being. God does not turn away and allow for evil to sneak in and alter His goodness. He can’t be separate from His thoughts, the very nature and quality of the universe. Any rupture to the integrity of perfect being must be seen for what it is: a mistaken perception of reality. There are no accidents. Everything God made is orderly and right and under control and remains so eternally. Our divine Providence is kind, loving, ever with us to bless us with goodness, safety, and perpetual peace.

“We cannot fill vessels already full. They must first be emptied.” (Science and Health, page 201)

To think we can add a spiritual sense of ourselves, the good and pure and right qualities to a mortal sense of self, full of darkness, fear, anger, and gloom, is folly. There is no room for the abundant wonder that is the truth of your being to be confined to such a limited space. We must empty our vessels, and do it with willingness and joy.

To give up the false sense of personality, human history, and sense perceptions, is to give up everything that is holding up your life, your happy and perfect life. We must see and see through these preoccupations, the mesmerizing sense of ourselves as less than worthy, less than beautiful, less than successful. We must abandon the self-judgment, condemnation of self and of others, and the mourning over our lives.

Let divine Love’s ocean of love flood in and carry off all the detritus of human beliefs. The junk that gloms up our thinking and our days, causing us to ruminate, lose sleep, lose focus, lose joy, is ready to be carried away. And with this acceptance of Love and rejection of the false sense of ourselves and others, we are lighter, freer, more right and more real. We have cleaned our house of everything that never belonged to us or suited us, so that we can have a bright and clear space, already beautifully arrayed with those qualities that look and feel right to us and to those around us.

Let go with joyous expectancy of a personal sense of yourself, and so discover your true self, emptied of fear and doubt and sickness and full of the Life that is Love.

“For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?” (Hebrews 12: 6-7)

Our chastening, that admonishment and seeming suffering that may come to us, is not a cause for doubt or fear. We are never out of God’s care. We are a child beloved of our Father and therefore, this Father requires our perfection, our happiness, our peace and rightness. He knows what we need, and He knows what He made as well as our absolute ability to carry out such a high standard.

So, that punishing sense that may come when we stray from His intention is our reminder that this is not the way we need to go. That chafing and roughness and discomfort that comes when we are not right on track, is not sent by God to harm us, but is the natural result of wearing a coat that doesn’t fit, being untrue to ourselves, and so feeling wrong, disturbed, unsettled.

God’s love is our salvation from the wrong and our preservation as we walk through the apparent trials of discovery. Because He is our Father and the greatest, purest, truest Love that there is, we are always being diligently watched, encouraged, awakened to wrong, and at the same time being given that which is true and right and lasting for our good. We are sons and daughters of infinite Wisdom. Mind would not allow His offspring to wander off course, to be less than true to His ideal, the ultimate satisfying and satisfied idea that is Love’s own child.

“God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” (John 4: 24)

God is Spirit. He consists of spiritual qualities, eternally right and infinitely expressed. We worship Him, obey Him, discover the truth of His grace, when we recognize and love the qualities that are His. We do not worship Him rightly if we think of Him as a mighty man in the sky, or even as some celestial being that has human reactions and limited capacities for understanding, power, and goodness.

We must worship God rightly. As we love Love, so do we love God and all that He is. As we listen for and practice this true and pure love, so are we obeying God, being true to Him, and thus knowing Him even better. There is nothing limited about our Father-Mother. His presence transcends geography and time. His Principle is not swayed by praise or blame. It stands certain and right and changeless in its unopposed reign over all things.

We must worship God “in truth.” We must come before Him, knowing He is Truth, Life, and Love, and be honest with Him and with ourselves. We must be true to who we really are by knowing Who He really is—the Father and nature of all that is real. We must and can come to feel His presence by knowing His character—limitless, active, tender, powerful, spiritual Love.

“I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.” (Psalms 17: 5)

Wake up to your identity, your beauty, your perfection. Wake up and take a look at yourself by turning toward the Original, that which you reflect in every intricate detail and without flaw or lapse. This is our satisfaction and our delight—to awake each day knowing just what we look like, just how completely wonderful we are.

God’s qualities are yours. We know ourselves by knowing Him. He is Love. He expresses perfect tenderness and no resentment or fear. He is Life. There is nothing in him that can deteriorate or diminish for He is eternal, and His substance endures forever. God is Spirit, so He is without limits, without restrictions, without any conditions upon freedom of movement, perfection of structure, form, and capacity.

We do not need to wait to awake to this likeness. Our full satisfaction can be claimed now. We have never stopped being the very image of His nature and the apple of His eye. God is always expressing Himself as our very being. We are always just like Him, always right in every detail, and so we are lovely and lovable, this morning, every morning, and all day long!

”Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the Lord thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.” (Isaiah 55:5)

Let your glorious light shine! Because we have called divine Love our God and been faithful to His Principle, we can’t help but be a bright beacon for others. We are made glorious through our acceptance of our true selves as sons and daughters of God. Our lives are revealed to be an accurate and active expression of His perfect nature, and this brilliance cannot be hidden.

So even those that have not known God, have not truly understood or felt the Truth of divine Love, will come unto you, will want what you have to offer, will want to join your party! Strangers to us and strangers to the Christ-message must run to the Truth. They can’t be deprived of it, and all nations and all mankind must come to know their unity, their oneness with each other because they are of one Principle, God, Love.

Everyone is naturally attracted to joy, life, and love. One can attempt to stay in the dark, but when a simple candle or a glaring spotlight shines, the darkness is lost, and God is seen to be there, bright with life and love. This is the Truth that we all must share freely and which must embrace the world in the bounty of harmony, goodness, and peace!

“As mortals give up the delusion that there is more than one Mind, more than one God, man in God’s likeness will appear, and this eternal man will include in that likeness no material element.” (Science and Health, page 191)

This simple fact claimed and accepted can bear witness to mountains moving in our lives. The truth of all truths is that there is and ever has been and ever will be only one Mind, and that one God. Hear and abide in this Principle. Anything that tries to defy that absolute law can’t prove the glories of Life that are readily, steadily available.

There are not many mortal minds, varied in thoughts and opinions and judgment and perspective. There is only one Mind, the perfect one. And it is always right, in agreement, and perfectly loving. Accepting this fact and trusting the divine law behind it, gives us the freedom to enjoy life and all its ever-present harmonies. We can yield to the incontestable wisdom of God and His right thinking, and give ourselves a break!

Let’s, with relief, let go of human analysis and the pondering of the motives of mortals, and release ourselves to the certainty of the One. The Mind that is God is always and already doing the right thing. This one and only power that we must worship and rely on is Love, Spirit. Acknowledging the truth of this Truth reveals the facts, rather than the lies, and we see ourselves as we really are–the ideas of a perfect and singular Mind, God, good, Love.

“There are many devices in a man’s heart; nevertheless the counsel of the Lord, that shall stand.” (Proverbs 19: 21)

God’s direction, guidance, counsel, is reliable and unmoving. It is the law to all things and it does not roll over for human machinations and argument and opinions. The Truth is the self-sustaining infinite. It is that which is and which necessarily acts. It is clear and clean and simple, based on the Principle that God is All and that All is Love.

Individuals may seem to come to cross purposes or misunderstandings. They may be confused or resentful or fearing. These devices of a man’s heart may appear to be many and ever-changing. We may seem to live at the whim of moods, emotions, circumstances, but these accusations against our serenity cannot stand. The counsel of the Lord, His blessing and His law of goodness and immortal Life, can’t be shaken or lost, even temporarily.

And the good news is that this Truth lives in each of our hearts naturally. When we yield to this fact, we naturally conquer those flimsy and unattractive and unnecessary “devices” of human reasoning, opinion, and false and lowered expectations. God’s word is in our heart, and its simple sweetness is a power for us that we can always and immediately claim, feel, and live.

“The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him. The Lord will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.” (Psalms 37: 32-33)

The good that we do, that we are demonstrating and striving to know better, is a threat to evil and its false claim to power and presence. We may seem to be under attack for our righteousness, innocence, and love. We may feel this makes us sensitive to trouble and more likely to be subject to it. But this is truly not our fate.

Watch and love. Keep alert to the evil that wants to draw you into its dream, but even more, be alert to God, to His ability to keep safe and sure and pure that which is the very necessary expression of His own nature. This goodness that we know and love is founded in and grounded upon God. It is not a weak victim to opposition, ignorance, and hatred. This very Love that we reflect and prove makes us strong beyond measure.

Know yourself rightly and know God as your infinite, invincible Father. He is the Life that does not roll over for death, the Love that does not succumb to hate, the omnipresent good that does not make exceptions for evil. The world’s views, circumstances, and time cannot condemn the right idea to punishment and pain. The Truth has overcome the world, and has kept us held above the fray. We are safe. God is watching the righteous, and this truth is our safety and our victory.

“Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance.” (Psalms 32: 7)

Our being, our true nature, is safe in Spirit, that hiding place from the tempests and terrors and troubles of material experience.  Our real identity, our innocent and untarnished life, is always embraced in the Truth of it and loved into perpetual newness of Life and its possibilities.

God is preserving us at all times, even when we feel our lives are swinging out of control or that everything we fear is gaining on us. Even in those moments when we think we can’t feel God, good, or know the love that He feels for us, we can be assured by the fact that God knows it, and He is the very Source and circumference of our life as it truly is.

And God, Love, not only keeps us preserved in our original state of innocent lovableness and infinite opportunity, He also sings about it! He is constantly celebrating that which He has kept safely hidden, cherished, in the heart of His love. He is always rejoicing and declaring and protecting us with His delight in us. His song of approval chases every attacker away. His Love’s broadness encompasses the darkness so that all that remains is the light that is the brightness of our true lives–safe, serene, and ready to be claimed and lived. Let’s join in God’s song with our own grateful voices and graceful lives!

“Every valley of sin must be exalted and every mountain of selfishness be brought low, that the highway of our God may be prepared in Science.” (Science and Health, page 61)

Our way is straight and easy and natural before us when we are obedient to the divine nature. The dark valleys that we seem to grope through must be elevated, our thought brought into line with that which is good and right for us and for all. We can’t continue in a false sense of ourselves and walk freely. That cloak of error, shame, ignorance, anger is too heavy and entirely unnecessary.

And we likewise can’t be true to our own identity and to God’s purpose when we uplift a personal and egotistical self, keep it always front and center, and make it responsible for either our triumph or our downfall. The mountaintop of personal success, selfish achievements at all costs or without heart, can never be a place of contentment or serenity. Our Life is Love and this Love is God. It must be obeyed.

This evening out of our perspective and purpose, this cleansing of that which is not in line with God’s goodness and Life and Love, is taking place. God’s purpose is that we express Him, the right and satisfying Life. This requires that we walk in His intention, without the sin that does not dignify us or the selfishness that does not bless us. God has a perfect way for us, and it is and can only be, His way.

“…nothing inharmonious can enter being, for Life is God.” (Science and Health, page 228)

Life is God. Existence, being, all that constitutes the experience of living, is God and His pure and perfect and limitless substance. In this Life, there is nothing destructive or deadly or unkind. Nothing that is unlike God can exist with Him and in Him. Life simply won’t abide something that would degrade or impair or infect it. This intact and spotless being is ours to live and enjoy.

No inharmonious thought or idea can get in. It is immediately detected and deflected by the divine Mind that knows Truth and in its Allness, abides no lies. Our life and our mind and our body are safe in God’s Life. We can claim this truth of our own being, and live that purity within us and around us, heaven untouched by hell.

In the same way that nothing can enter being that is not of God’s goodness and purpose, so can nothing right and good leave being. Nothing that is rightfully ours, that constitutes our nature and our wholeness, can be lost. We cannot lose our wisdom, our clarity, our mobility, our innocence. We cannot lose our peace. What God is, what Being truly is, cannot add or lose anything inharmonious. Harmony is its eternal nature, and we are its eternal expression!

“Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.” (Ephesians 1: 2)

May your life be full of the awareness and expectation of grace. May you realize that your Father-Mother-God has blessed you infinitely with the tender power of His Love. May you know in your heart that Christ, that Truth of your own heritage as a child of God, has come to save you from limits and lies and to set you free to really live.

Do not forget the presence and activity of God’s grace. His unmerited and pure love for each of us is forever available, for divine Love simply must love. We are the blessed object of this perfect and unconditional Love and we must receive it with open arms, in the free spirit in which it is coming to us. Put no conditions on what God does not restrict. Don’t judge or qualify what God does not judge or qualify. Accept no less than what divine Life and Love bestow graciously and gracefully upon you, for God does not parcel out His good or withdraw it.

Grace is yours. It showers down continuously upon our grateful heads and opens wide our hearts to receive and to give more and more freely. Jesus showed us this, revealed the nature of His Father, our Father, and what that means: You are loved. You are cared for. You are blessed now and always with the grace that is the presence of infinite divine Love in your powerful, wonderful life!

“Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.” (Ephesians 6: 16)

Our protection against the attacks of materiality and its limits and lies, is our faith in the Truth. The reliance on and belief in God, good, the great I AM of all Life, gives us everything necessary to deflect evil’s accusations. As we know the omnipotent ever-presence of good, Truth, the insistent battering of the lies does not concern us and cannot paralyze us. Our trust is well-settled in God’s authority and goodness and purpose.

This “shield of faith” is our daily identification with God, our awareness of Him and of our own presence with Him. We can conscientiously realize the Principle that is infallibly loving, sustaining, and saving. We can actively draw close to that divine Principle of our Life that does not fear the taunts of material sense or evil purposes, because in that Truth our innocence is found and kept intact.

The fiery darts of mortal opinions, of false judgments, of the doom of time and circumstance, are quenched in this protective embrace, washed away in the refreshing reality of Love. Nothing can harm us, for our faith is well-placed. Our Father-Mother is faithful to us, and we are the faithful reflection of His infinite and perfect and safe and triumphant Life!

“This Soul-sense comes to the human mind when the latter yields to the divine Mind. Such intuitions reveal whatever constitutes and perpetuates harmony, enabling one to do good, but not evil.” (Science and Health, page 84)

Our Soul-sense is keen and clear and at the ready. This true intuitiveness comes not of human wisdom or insight, but of divine revelation. The divine Mind is always right and always actively proving that rightness. Our rest in this day and in the days to come is to acknowledge that One Mind as infinite and yield the willful human mind to God’s sweet direction and harmonious resolutions.

We know our Soul-sense is at work for us when we feel that sense of peace and freedom that such intuitions must necessarily bring. The impersonal and yet so individually right thoughts that come to us as we listen faithfully, may or may not seem logical or realistic in a human sense. They may not meet the test of “pro” versus “con.”

Instead, these Soul-inspirations come of God, and therefore have no such limits upon them, no opinion to discourage them, and no negative side to them. They simply are right, and being right, they are true, reliable, and provable. As we stop the sense of a personal mind with its personal obstacles and weaknesses and intelligence, we can hear and feel these deep and true intuitions, that can never harm us or anyone and which bring us satisfaction, peace, and rest.

“The recipe for beauty is to have less illusion and more Soul, to retreat from the belief of pain or pleasure in the body into the unchanging calm and glorious freedom of spiritual harmony.” (Science and Health, page 247)

Soul is God’s conscious awareness of Himself, all that constitutes Life as it really is. We are privy to this true perspective, are able to relax into and release ourselves to that freeing sense of life that is true beauty and satisfaction. We can beat a hasty and joyous retreat from the belief that everything we experience is related to our body and its sensations.

Life is more beautiful than that. We are more beautiful than that. The pleasures and pains of sense are illusions, never solid or reliable Truth, never the arbiters of how we are doing or of who we are. Soul brings to what may be a wrong sense of body, a limitless concept of it—man unfettered from that belief that his body is his life and that it contains his freedom or his slavery.

We are under God. Our being is forever beautiful because it is radiant reflection, not a clod of matter whose sensations can bring agony or ecstasy. We can see and know ourselves truly, see our faces clearly, recognize our grace and loveliness, when we leave that illusion of matter body for the body of ideas that constitutes our changeless identity as the accurate expression of God’s own magnificence!

“Perfect and infinite Mind enthroned is heaven. The evil beliefs which originate in mortals are hell.” (Science and Health, page 266)

Heaven is God’s supremacy acknowledged and obeyed. Hell is giving to mortal thought a power it isn’t worthy of and can’t handle. Any hellish experience is dwelling in and dwelling on that which would suggest that there is an opposition to Allness, to pure goodness, Life and Love. This hell isn’t a real place or a real condition, and it isn’t something we are stuck with, even temporarily.

The infinite Mind has guaranteed that our heaven is at hand. The eternal and true nature of God and His perfect goodness, gives us a certain and ready access to peace and harmony. The thought is the thing. We can believe in and fight and argue with and succumb to evil beliefs, writhing in the hell of our own acceptance. Or, we can choose to enter into the heaven of His consciousness and find joy and peace.

It is not mere positive thinking. It is a clearing out of evil thoughts by yielding to the solid and sustaining Truth of Life as not at the mercy of matter or error. It is an agreement to believe and worship good, God, and to disbelieve and give up the acceptance of anything less than what He is and what we deserve to experience. We must enthrone God, perfect good, in our thought, give it full authority and trust. Heaven is ours because we are God’s own ideas never out of His sight, and our natural state of being is harmonious, lovely, and free.

“Sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God: Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.” (Psalms 147: 7-8)

It’s time to sing for our supper! Let’s join together in praise and joyous harmony for the gift of God’s grace, His abundant love, and His precious promises ripe for the claiming. Let’s sing forth our gratitude in our conscious awareness of His goodness. Let us love the good we do see and be awake to even that which we do not see.

Creation lives and moves according to God’s will, His loving intention, His order, and His limitless design. God is everywhere and His fullness is ever active, so His qualities are always at hand for us to accept and to relish. We can and must be grateful for that which is real and right and present. The awareness of our abundance is our key to receiving it and to sharing it.

God has never been anything but plentiful. The belief in lack is a belief alone and does not affect in any degree the boundless Principle. Let’s sing the song of gratitude for the grandeur of comfort and love, of security and peace, of fun and freedom, for wisdom and health and agility and energy. These are God expressed and so they are ours today and every day. Let us breathe in the aroma of His beautiful gifts, and dine together on the meat of His always ready, always right, always satisfying goodness and love.

The happiest of Thanksgivings to you all!

“For we walk by faith, not by sight:” (II Corinthians 5: 7)

As we love and adore God and recognize the Christ–the Truth come to earthly beliefs– we can no longer judge our lives or anyone else’s by appearances. We can’t take what the senses feed us as an indication of how well we are doing or what our potential is for life. We can’t take our steps merely according to what seems humanly right. Instead, we walk, live, give, express through our reliance on God’s own clear and flawless Truth.

Sense testimony is a blind guide, and we have a more confident one. Our faith, our reliance on and love of good, God, Mind, opens our spiritual eyes to limitless reality. As we give up the limits that personal sense erects for the broad horizons of Soul’s viewpoint, we are able to experience the Life God has designed for us, one that is abundant in good, suitable to us, and pleasing.

We are followers of our Guide, our Shepherd. We walk with Him, trusting not what human opinions or material testimony would attempt to project for our acceptance. Instead, we walk in the sweet simplicity of a child, reliant on his own Father and Mother to take us where we need to go, to show us what we need to know, and to love us forward with a gentle insistence that is just right.

“Human will-power is not Science. Human will belongs to the so-called material senses, and its use is to be condemned.” (Science and Health, page 144)

Christian Science is not based on human will. It is not forcing the human mind to think something or do something. It is not one person willing another person or oneself to be better. Human will is not only an unfruitful approach to thorough and lasting healing and human betterment, it is a form of hypnotism, an activity of the mortal mind, and it disobeys and dishonors the One Mind, God.

It may seem at times that we need to rely on human will to get us where we need to go, to discipline ourselves, or to achieve a certain result. But human will is not wisdom, only material effort. It does not come of what is really right and what is truly powerful, but merely of material reliance which is by nature limited. This method cannot bring us the natural freedom and satisfying life that is our own ready inheritance to claim.

Yield up that belief in your own personal will or the reliance on another to bring about results. Your heaven rests easily on the divine will, and that will is always actively at hand. We must give up the sense that we are little individual minds striving through human effort to be more godlike. Instead, the answer and peace and resolution come by releasing ourselves to the divine will, that which is not human desire, but spiritual rightness. This sweet and powerful impulse of divine wisdom must unfold life according to that which is not only good, but which is perfectly, naturally, right for us and for all.

“In some way, sooner or later, all must rise superior to materiality, and suffering is often the divine agent in this elevation.” (Science and Health, page 444)

We have been given the kingdom. The spiritual sense of Life is ours to claim naturally and to enjoy fully. We must come to recognize the limits the mortal mind has seemed to place on our gracious and grateful reception of all that belongs to us. In order to do this, sometimes there may seem to be suffering. It isn’t punishment, but a “divine agent” to our “elevation.”

God’s Love will not let us continue to stay confined to a material sense of life and its unfair limits. This true Love requires that we give up any familiar comfort with that which is less than right and less than satisfying for us. We were formed by God to be His perfect expression, to radiate His glory and announce His goodness. We cannot truly do this if we are still content with living a lie.

The seeming suffering cannot harm our true state. It cannot touch who we are. It can only force us to give up the wrong thinking and acting, that which limits our loveliness, and to come to know the better, higher, and holier way. We can cease the suffering sense as we consciously recognize who God is and Who we are naturally as His children, and refuse to see or be anything less. The discomfort in matter and the dissatisfaction with material life can only lead us necessarily into the Comforter’s arms, into the real Truth of our Life as spiritual, full, satisfying, pure, and free.

“Hear these imperative commands: ‘Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect!’ ‘Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature!’ ‘Heal the sick!’” (Science and Health, page 37)

These commands to each of us are imperative! We absolutely must obey, because we were made to do so. Our duty to God and man is based on our own readiness and rightness for the job. As God’s own ideas, we cannot possibly go forth promoting error or even keeping silent or apathetic about the good that is ours to live and to prove.

We were made in His image and likeness, perfect and therefore perfectly capable of radiating that light of goodness throughout the world, bringing our heavenly awareness to our ready earth. Neither Jesus nor Mary Baker Eddy was tentative about this declaration of who we are and what our calling is. They knew the power of divine reflection, and the necessity of bearing God’s standard forth eagerly and expectantly into the world.

Imperative: “absolutely necessary or required; unavoidable.” There’s no way to escape it! Our perfection and its demonstration are both entirely natural and absolutely necessary. Let’s get about being who we were formed to be—powerful ideas of God, actively proving His presence, His goodness, and His all-embracing Love. It’s our calling and our blessing.

“Man reflects infinite Truth, Life, and Love.” (Science and Health, page 94)

The true man, the man that you are, is the reflection of that which is limitless and wonderful. We not only have the qualities of goodness that God has created us to express, we have them fully, enduringly, eternally, infinitely. Life, Truth, and Love are boundless and we abound in them naturally.

Reflection does not own its attributes. Reflection—man–is not the possessor of the substance of Spirit, God. This unlimited good is safe in the Original, in God, in Mind, in the Father-Mother-Creator. Nothing good can be lost nor can it be limited by a false sense of personality, materiality, circumstance, geography. We are always as big in goodness as God is, for we reflect His changeless perfection.

Don’t belittle yourself or anyone else. Man expresses infinite Being. He is Love at its fullest, Life without beginning or end, and Truth triumphant, pure, and unopposed. We are God’s own image, His idea expressed without reservation, condition, or obstruction. There is no partialness to this expression, nothing pared down, diminished, or meager. Truth, Life, and Love are infinite, ever-present, and the very nature of you and of me!

“Whatever is false or sinful can never enter the atmosphere of Spirit.”  (Science and Health, page 70)

The atmosphere of Spirit is impregnable. No material belief or material consequence can infiltrate its firm defenses. Spirit is that citadel in which we all dwell, and it includes every needful thing while leaving out all that is destructive or false, frightening or mistaken.

We are not residents of a geographical area with its climate, its economy, its boundaries and limits. We reside and abide in that spiritual Truth of our being, that Life that is not confined to material circumstances or defined by human history. Nothing evil or erroneous can enter divine Mind where His ideas—you and me—unfailingly live, and nothing ever has. No demon has gotten through and altered Life as God caused it to be.

We can breathe in that atmosphere of Spirit freely. We can know it has no germs of disease or strains of fear. Spirit is always actively enforcing and supporting Life. And we are Life’s own ideas always faithfully and fully expressed. We can walk within this pure atmosphere, energized by its strong currents of Life and Truth, and know that not only are we free, but we are presently and permanently safe!

“The history of Christianity furnishes sublime proofs of the supporting influence and protecting power bestowed on man by his heavenly Father, omnipotent Mind, who gives man faith and understanding whereby to defend himself, not only from temptation, but from bodily suffering.” (Science and Health, page 387)

The ability of God to save and heal has been made evident throughout the centuries. We have a history of proof to rely on. The precedent has been set and the law behind it is valid and in force. We have the constant support and power behind all that we are and all that we do, because we are children of God, formed to show forth His Life.

And God has given us and continues to bestow on us all the tools necessary to know the Truth of being, to demonstrate it, to live it. Our omnipotent Mind gives man faith and understanding. That very faith we may feel betrays us with doubts; that understanding that may seem so elusive, God Himself has already provided us. Just as He has already given us the health that can’t be taken away, that well-being that can’t be kept from us, that peace and joy that we have freely and consistently, so we also have inherited the way of knowing this goodness.

Our loving Father-Mother has taken care of all the details. He protects and defends us. He gives us the very faith and understanding that is needed for our full release to the heaven He has made in us and for us. We already have all that we need to know and experience our good Life as God’s blessed and beloved children.

“Let us be faithful in pointing the way through Christ, as we understand it, but let us also be careful always to ‘judge righteous judgment,’ and never to condemn rashly.” (Science and Health, page 444)

We have a great gift to share. We have the understanding of God as All, as good, and as Love. We have been informed that we are all the sons of God, that because of this we are able to transcend material sense, and be set free to be free. We can’t hold this fact back or be timid about sharing the healing truth with others.

But, we must also be careful that we don’t presume that another is not naturally privy to the good news as he is hearing it. We have to be as ready to listen as to talk, to be receptive to others and their views, whether they seem to match ours or not. Every idea of God is precious. Each one has been given the truth inherently, is being attended to every moment by his Father-Mother, and so is discovering what is right and true for him. We need not claim responsibility for bringing another the Truth, or deciding the time and way that they must live and prove it.

We can also be discerners and not judgers. We can see beyond appearances and assumptions to the true, complete, good man that we are so excited to be coming to know. We should be thankful that every day we are being given the opportunity to recognize God’s man everywhere because that man is the only man there really is. Judging and condemning is not a part of our mission. Our mission is to love.

“Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.” (John 14: 17)

The material world doesn’t know you. Personal sense can’t describe you or define you. Human opinions don’t have a clue as to the glory of you, that true idea that makes up every aspect of your perfect nature, beloved of God and powerful to good works.

The spirit of Truth is that Christ-idea that is the true definition of man, of you as God caused you to be and kept you to be. The material senses have no way of knowing Spirit. They cannot grasp or demonstrate infinite Truth, Life, and Love. Your grandeur transcends matter’s depictions, but it isn’t distant or difficult to claim and know.

Your heart already knows God. Love dwells in you and remains there in spite of the world’s doubts and opposition to goodness. Be still and know Him. Know Life and Love and Truth not as something to strive for or that can be lost through time and circumstance. That which is spiritual has no limits and endures forever. The Truth of you is always with you, its silent assurances at hand. The Truth of you is always preserving you, uplifting you, saving you, and loving you.

Receive the gift of knowing your own majesty–right here, right now, and always!
