Alone with God

LEWIS REX MILLER

A physician recently wrote, in a letter published in a widely read American magazine, "I am not sure that loneliness does not cause more pain and suffering all told than some of the conditions which we doctors work so hard to relieve by the various products of scientific research."

He went on to express regret that more of what he described as "scientific thought" had not been directed towards the alleviation of loneliness.

The fact is that much truly scientific thought has been and is being successfully, efficaciously, directed to this end. The sense of loneliness and separation is daily being eliminated from the experience of many individuals through the ministrations of Christian Science, and supplanted by the comforting consciousness of the presence and availability of the one loving, all-sufficient God.
