God Does Guide

[Written Especially for Young People]

SARAH ELEANOR PAINE

One summer evening, a student of Christian Science gratefully accepted the invitation of some friends to ride home from a suburb in the rumble seat of their car. On the way, the passenger was amused and interested in watching the medley of reflections in the rear window of the car. The lights and shadowy forms of the cars behind, as well as of those coming in front and from side streets, seemed to mingle in alarming confusion. Continually there was the appearance of present or impending disaster, and occasionally the student felt startled at the seeming impossibility of guiding a car safely through such chaos.

Then she would laughingly remind herself that what she saw was not the truth of the situation, and that the thoroughly competent driver in the front seat, who had a correct view of the road, was unaware of the illusory jumble which appeared to the passenger in the seat behind. When the group reached home the remark was made that, although the traffic had been heavy, there had been no danger or disorder at any time.
