Employment

SVEND PONTOPPIDAN BROBY

Perhaps the question of employment looms on the horizon of the business world with greater force to-day than ever before; and to many it suggests fear of what the future may bring. World conditions are rapidly changing; industries are being reorganized; machines are replacing labor. Furthermore, in certain quarters the thought is finding acceptance that only youth is wanted to manage the business of the world, and that the more mature workers are being forced out of employment.

What answer is humanity returning to these suggestions, put forward in the name of necessity and progress, which would, if they could, submerge many in fear and disaster? It is evident that whoever has accepted them is unable to give a satisfactory explanation of the phenomenon, or to find any remedy for it.

Now, Christian Science supplies the answer to this, as to all other question which are presented for solution, in a simple, yet profound manner. It declares that God has never lost control of His own creation—the universe, including man; and, furthermore, that every one of God's ideas is necessary in His plan. Man, as God's image or reflection, is always about his Father's business, reflecting God. No supposed power can change this fact or separate man from the Father-Mother God, good.
