THE CHILDLIKE MIND

It is only when we begin to make some progress in our understanding of Christian Science that we are able to see the immense importance of our Master's words, "Verily I say unto you, except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

AWAKENING

There are perhaps very few Christian Scientists, even among those who before coming into Science have found inspiration and help from the study of the Bible, who do not acknowledge again and again the wonderful value of the new teaching as an aid to the understanding of the old truth.

BY THE WAYSIDE

During a recent extended trip through the far West and Pacific coast cities, it was my privilege to visit and enjoy the splendid system of Christian Science reading-rooms and church services, an experience which has emphasized anew and given me a keener realization of what this work means toward the world's uplift and redemption; With praise and gratitude to God for the gift of one whose spiritual insight, foresight, and unselfed love made this possible, I know that I voice the feelings of many travelers in sending a word of appreciation and encouragement to these loyal and patient workers at the post of duty in every department connected with the publication of our Christian Science literature.

"ALL'S WELL"

The good old custom, which still obtains in some places, of a watchman patroling the streets at night, calling out the hours as they pass, and adding the comforting assurance that "All's well," has, I think, a special signification to Christian Scientists.

If there is so much Scriptural justification for sin, sickness, and misery as our critic contends, why did the Saviour spend so much of his time while on the earth eliminating such conditions from human experience, at the same time declaring that his "mighty works" were in fulfilment of the law and in direct accord with the divine will?

THOU KNOWEST BEST

In other days of other years afar,To all life's vaunting joys I gladly turned,Mine own self-will, my happiness, the quest—And yet in vain! For this I had not learned:Thou knowest best.

FOR THE WORK'S SAKE

When Jesus healed the sick on the shores of Galilee, in its towns and villages and by its roadsides, as recorded in the gospels, we can scarcely assume that he did this work simply that the sick might be healed, but rather because it seemed to him a necessary incident in exemplification of the gospel he preached,—a gospel which invariably heals the sick when it is understood and practised.

THE HEALING TOUCH

We are told that the common people heard the Master gladly, and when we remember the size of the audiences he addressed, the long distances which the many must have come to hear him, and the frequency with which they followed him from place to place that they might garner all his marvelous sayings,—the ease with which he reached the people becomes apparent, and we are brought face to face with the inescapable inference that, preached in its purity and power, the gospel must ever be irresistibly winsome.
