If
Love owns all the hours that wait,Standing outside tomorrow's gate,Then need I ask the morrow's task,Or need I fear a prospect drearIf Love owns all the now and here?
Active
students of Christian Science are sometimes confronted with the questions: "What duty and responsibility devolve upon me for correcting error when it seems to be evident in church affairs or in business relationships?
"Fear
thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness," we read in Isaiah.
As
one studies the history of the human race it presents in many periods an effort on the part of mankind to rise, a continuous struggle to cast off limitations and fetters of every kind.
The
world concerns itself with material power, but Christian Science proves that the only real power is moral and spiritual and that it must be found in its Principle, God.
What a privilege it is to live in an age when the full Science of Christianity has been revealed to mankind! The crystal-clear presentation of the Christ as given in our textbook.

Several months after I turned to Christian Science I was healed through the loving help of a practitioner of what the doctors called a chronic nervous stomach condition.
Some neighbor's children, whom I had watched grow up with my own children in Bremen and met again there many years later, first called my attention to Christian Science when I was in need of physical healing; this was in 1949.
From early girlhood I had been an active church worker and an ardent student of the Bible; but I did not have a very satisfying understanding of God and of man's relationship to Him until Christian Science came to my notice through copies of the Sentinel which a student of Christian Science brought to our art studio each week.
Ten years ago I suffered severely from asthma, I went from one doctor to another; the last one told my husband and me that I had only two weeks to live.
