What Do We Trust?

Helen Wood Bauman

Wealth often appears through intense materialism, through states of mind that love matter, covet it, elbow others out of the way in order to possess it, omit generosity in order to accumulate it, and when it is acquired, trust it in all circumstances.

But prosperity that appears through states of mind which love Spirit, God, desire the kingdom of heaven, are dedicated to helping others, and give generously to worthy causes evidences a calm and deep trust in God. It shows that someone has responded to the touch of ever-present Spirit, which, according to Christian Science, is alone worthy of our trust.
