Erasing Mistakes

Carl J. Welz

Human beings make mistakes, but God never errs. Some human mistakes result in conditions that are hard to bear, but an understanding of God and His creation enables us to correct both the mistakes and their effects.

Through Christian Science we learn that God is infinite Mind. There is no other mind. The mortal so-called mind is but a supposition of the absence of Mind, God. In the degree that we believe this supposition, we can make mistakes. In the degree that we understand the oneness and allness of divine Mind and man's oneness with this Mind, we experience no mistakes. And if we have made mistakes, the Christ enables us to erase them.

Christ is Truth acting on human consciousness, transforming thought by destroying evil and establishing good. Christ is the manifestation to human consciousness of the divine Mind, Life, Truth, and Love, declaring itself to be All-in-all. Wherever we find ourselves, however we may have gotten there, the Christ is present, and its presence is always in evidence. We may feel it. We may use it. When we do, mistakes are erased, and the effects of those mistakes disappear.
