COMPARISONS

When Christian Scientists reflect upon what was a mere existence and compare it with the fuller life of joy and peace that they now know, they can but remember our Master's promise, "I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever," and realize the truth of our Leader's words, "This Comforter I understand to be divine Science".
