"Serve the Lord with gladness:...

"Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing" (Ps. 100:2).

The gladness which comes from serving the Lord entered my life when I started the study of Christian Science more than twenty years ago. I was a high school student when an older, beloved sister passed on. I turned to my mothers copy of Science and Health by Mary Baker Eddy, to find a God who did not send grief to His children. This study brought healing, comfort, and great joy.

Prior to this time I had rebelled at the thought of a God who would bless or harm. I had voiced this rebellion in an orthodox Sunday school and had been rebuked for not being willing to accept, without question, what the Lord gave. The joy which the new knowledge of God brought into my life was immeasurable.
