What Life Has to Offer

Carl J. Welz

Life on earth is full of many wonderful things. Adventure, affection, wealth, conquest, beauty, fame, fun, are a few of the headings under which many people might list what they should like to get out of life. Some of the things one wants in life often seem so important to him that when he fails to achieve them, he becomes ill.

Medical science may attempt to solve the problem by using physical means to heal the illness or through mental analysis it may attempt to solve the problem by enabling the patient to attain what he is seeking or by showing him how to adjust to his inability to attain it. Christian Science unveils for the patient the fact that all good is in and of God. As he finds his oneness, or unity, with good, the frustration is eliminated, and the disease is healed.

A demonstrable fact in Christian Science is that God is Love. All that is good in human life, therefore, has as its basis the Principle that is Love. In reality there is nothing to be gained from human life that is not constituted in and expressive of divine Love. The love which reflects divine Love is real.
