STUDENT AND SCIENTIST

[Of Special Interest to Young People]

JEAN AMELIA DIEKOFF

The impetus to all education is a desire to know what is true —a searching for the fundamental laws of being. Through education we seek deliverance from the darkness of ignorance and false belief. We seek the revealing light of truth.

The Christian Scientist who attends a college or university should be grateful that he has already caught a glimpse of Truth through Christian Science. The very fact that he is able to be at college may be the result of prayerful work regarding his proper place. In any case, he faces the demands of the college years equipped with an understanding of God which cannot fail him. He accepts unequivocally the statement made by our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 224), "No power can withstand divine Love."

Temptations sometimes challenge the young student to prove the truths of Christian Science—to show that they are indeed adequate to meet every need and solve every problem. With each victory over sickness or error comes the renewed conviction that in Science we have the pearl of great price and that it is worth everything to us.
