Rest

BY HENRY BRADFORD SIMMONS.

Have you found rest—not as the world giveth it but as Jesus gave it when on earth and as now revealed in Christian Science?

We shall never find rest without the presence of Love—Love enough to love our enemies and dissolve all malice within and without.

When Jesus stood before the band of men and officers in Gethsemane and declared "I am he," his pursuers fell to the ground,—fell before Love's representative,—for the prince of this world found no response in Love—Love is his annihilation.

Let us pray for more Love that each thought in us or for us which is contrary to Truth—we are not dealing with personality,—may fall before Love; then will come rest,—rest in harmonious action.
