The Value of Good Thoughts

Myra E. Olmstead

THE following testimonial as to the value of good thoughts will be read with interest and profit:—

I have faith in the value of good thoughts, and in the utility of offering one whenever the occasion presents itself. If we throw but a pebble in the ocean, it starts the wavelets to flowing, and they go on and on in an ever-widening circle, until embraced in the vastness of the great deep. So it is with good thoughts spoken. They are thrown out on the ocean of life, and each one finds a responsive chord in some human heart to which it is adapted.

In the prefatory remarks in Science and Health, we find this truth: "The time for thinkers has come;" and in the beginning of the chapter on "Prayer," Mrs. Eddy states that "thoughts unspoken are not unknown to the divine Mind," and to me this has become a verity. But it is line upon line; precept upon precept; here a little, and there a little, by which the larger lessons of life are gained. And the beautiful teachings of Christian Science cannot be too often reiterated.
