When
Mary Baker Eddy, through the power of God manifested to her in her own recovery from the effects of an accident, received the spiritual revelation which she afterward named Christian Science, she had before her an uncharted way.
In
the light of Christian Science, man, the image and likeness of his Father-Mother God is seen as changeless, perfect, harmonious, happy, loving, and eternal.
The
feeling of weariness, of stagnation or overburdened progress, cannot be predominant in the lives of those who are radically dependent upon God and this fact points the way to release from these unprofitable states of human thought.
At the outbreak of the recent conflict with the Japanese I was on duty in the United States Navy Yard at Cavite, Philippine Islands, I served throughout the Philippine defense campaign and was led safely from that theater of war to our forces in Australia.
For the joy and help received from reading the testimonies in our periodicals, for the precious gift of Christian Science to mankind, and for its regenerating and healing effect in my own experience, I desire to express my heartfelt gratitude.
Recently, while I was working to solve a problem, the thought came to me that it had been about nineteen years since Christian Science was first presented to me.
Within the quiet of today,In one uplifted hour,Enfolded in the consciousnessOf Love's omniscient power,A peace is mine, a holy peace,Wherein I am awareOf being in the "secret place,"Sanctified by prayer.
