Taking Sweet Counsel Together

KATE E. ANDREAE

He who discerns man's unity with God, the one Mind, brings into his experience an indissoluble bond of unity with his brother man. Individuals who are working together in the grand pursuit of idealism, as taught in Christian Science, are bound by a common interest. The Psalmist wrote, "We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of God in company."

To take "sweet counsel together" is to share the inspiration of our sacred communion with God, not by words merely, for divinely gathered blessings can be but feebly expressed in words. Thoughts imbued with spiritual understanding, however, go forth unhindered, and the right thinker gains daily in grace, goodness, and loving-kindness as he scatters in his environment, and beyond, the free, priceless gifts of God's bestowing.

Genuine Christian Scientists all over the world are taking "sweet counsel together" as they listen for and hear only the highest and best, the real and true. A right thinker utilizes the power of divinity for the solution of human problems, as the true concept of man is lifted up and the spiritual idea is understood; even that spiritual idea which, Mrs. Eddy says (Miscellaneous Writings, p. 175), "takes of the things of God and showeth them unto the creature, until the whole sense of being is leavened with Spirit."
