"PRAISE YE THE LORD"

KATHLEEN O'CONNOR

THE Bible is so full of exhortations to praise God that it may be helpful to consider, in the light of Christian Science, the true meaning of praise, why it is necessary, and how it may best be expressed.

Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, writes in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p.2), "God is not moved by the breath of praise to do more than He has already done, nor can the infinite do less than bestow all good, since He is unchanging wisdom and Love." God, Spirit, maintains His perfect universe of spiritual ideas in perpetual harmony; He is not affected by the praise or dispraise of mortals. A right understanding of praise, however, uplifts human thought to behold God's glory and to recognize man, His image and likeness, as the reflection, or expression, of this glory.
