EXISTENCE IS NOT HUMDRUM

Harold Molter

It is necessary for most people to engage in some regular activity each day to earn a living for themselves and to help support their families. To some this is a joyous experience, but for many it develops into a monotonous daily round of hours spent in wearisome work, with little or no inspiration. Existence seems to be humdrum—dull, purposeless.

Christian Science shows us how our daily living can become a joyous adventure, rich in accomplishment, blessing not only ourselves but others as well. It teaches us that true existence is the expression of God, of Life—joyous, harmonious, and throbbing with useful and purposeful activity. Life, Mary Baker Eddy tells us, is individualized in countless ideas, all reflecting the radiant nature of the divine creator.

The record of Christ Jesus and that of our beloved Leader show that the power of the Christ made their daily lives glow with inspiration and brought countless blessings to their fellow men. Consider the great change in the experience of the fishermen who left their nets without a moment's hesitation and followed Jesus in his great missionary work. Also those who knew Mrs. Eddy felt that they were in the presence of a compelling power which blessed and healed them and removed the monotony of their lives.
