Mrs. Eddy was a great and grand woman

Daily Traveler

Mrs. Eddy was a great and grand woman. We believe her to have been the greatest woman the world ever knew. She was the most loved and at the same time the most maligned woman of the age.

She gave to the world a religion that will be found eternal. Those who have espoused it have found it a great solace and it has made them better citizens. Its teachings have brought a good God closer to them and caused them to know that He is "a very present help." It teaches that God is Spirit, Life, Truth, and Love, and that "man is His image and likeness," and that the real man and the universe are spiritual, not material. It teaches that God is the only cause and creator and there is no other presence or power. Upon these principles is founded the religion which Mrs. Eddy discovered and gave to the world, and it is rapidly covering the face of the earth.

To Christian Scientists Mrs. Eddy was their beloved Leader. She was their wayshower to an ever-present salvation. They feel that her life-work was finished and that she has left a wonderful heritage to those who desire to accept it.
