LOVE AND LAW

The first and most important thing for every little one to learn, is the unyielding nature of true love, and the future of the child whose parents are not wise enough or not strong enough to impart this lesson, is apt to bring him unhappiness if not defeat. To allow a child to grow up with the thought that love consents to his wilfulness and indulgence, is to do him a very great wrong, since he cannot even begin to live aright until he has come to understand that love means unflinching loyalty to the right, to wisdom.

Upon a more mature plane of experience this same lesson must be learned by us all respecting the love of our heavenly Father, that it cannot consent to the unideal; that the law of Love is the law of Truth. Then we come in touch with the Science of being and are able rightly to interpret the Scripture which saith, "Whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth." The divine manifestation is scientific and saving, its human statement perfectly intelligible in the light of Science. The divine government is forever expressed in the maintenance of the immutability of Love, the integrity of Truth.
