Our Place in the New World

[Of Special Interest to Youth]

LOIS GRIGGS MUNFORD

What a great sense of relief and joy we shall experience when we finally cast aside the harrowing confusion of the present warfare, put the aggressor down, and realize an unmistakable and permanent victory! Our young people are, without doubt, especially eager and anxious for that final day when they may come home again and re-establish themselves in a normal way of life. And yet, according to human opinion, this task threatens to be an arduous one. Sometimes one hears it declared that the going will be hard for them, that grave problems will face them, that they may be handicapped, homeless, useless, and without hope of any reward for their accomplishments.

The student of Christian Science fortunately is able to exempt himself from these false mortal laws, and if he has not already cast them out as aggressive mental suggestions, he will be able to do so through the understanding that God could never put any such blight on His children, that His plan includes the abundance of good and cannot be followed by any element of relapse, restriction, or delay.

We are having many proofs and signs from our young men and young women overseas that the all-controlling divine Mind is being more and more clearly understood and found to be the only refuge from beliefs of separation, fear, disease, and death. The problems which have presented themselves through the long night of war and strife have seemed to be many, but in the coming days it will be equally vital to cling to the comforting truth that Life is God, a fact which has been brought to light by our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy.
