"WHOSO HEARKENETH"

BLANCHE HERSEY HOGUE.

We are told in the book of Proverbs that whoso hearkeneth unto God "shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil." The students of Christian Science are being lovingly persuaded, by the demonstrability of the Christianity and the Science revealed to them in the Scriptures as interpreted in our text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," that they have found a usable, provable, all-satisfying way of hearkening to God.

Through the statements of Truth peculiar to the teaching of Christian Science, thinkers are being made aware of the all-power, ever-presence, and ever-beneficence of God, of His nature and law, and of His unfailing availability to man. They are shown how to open their thoughts to His presence, and how to preserve unbroken unity with His thinking by themselves thinking the divine thoughts which link them to Him. In "precept upon precept, line upon line," they are shown the processes of spiritual thinking and how they may be adopted by men to displace material thoughts and desires. The way to listen to God is made plain, it only remains for us to want God, to search for Him, to give Him first place in the affections; we are to hearken, in short, at all times to His law and to His commandment.
