INDIVIDUALITY AND CO-OPERATION

[Of Special Interest to Young People]

Co-operation is a lovely quality which many young people learn to practice through sports and games. "A good sport" is a much-prized appellation, since it implies the submergence of self for the common good, and one meriting it brings a harmonizing influence to human relationships.

Christian Scientists appreciate unselfishness wherever and however expressed. They know that only as they learn to bring thought into close adherence to God as the one Mind do they demonstrate their true individuality and come under the government of divine law, which blesses all. Christian Science teaches that here and now God's plan for His children is wise and beneficent and that He is the divine Principle of all that really is.

Man is not a limited mortal striving to get along with or in spite of other mortals. He is the perfect individual expression of Mind and, reflecting the substance of good, is held in harmonious adjustment with every other idea. Our individual responsibility is always to hold to this knowledge, regardless of what may seem to be going on in the realm of material sense.
