We Are Never Alone

DORA J. HORTON

Knowing God as man's only real relative and friend confers freedom from the belief that constant or frequent contact with persons is essential to our happiness. The abiding understanding of ever-present, infinite Love includes all real friendship and relationship.

Mrs. Eddy writes: "Would existence without personal friends be to you a blank? Then the time will come when you will be solitary, left without sympathy; but this seeming vacuum is already filled with divine Love. When this hour of development comes, even if you cling to a sense of personal joys, spiritual Love will force you to accept what best promotes your growth."^{Science and Health, p. 266;}

As our understanding of Love's everlasting omnipresence increases, we more easily see why there can be no separation from God or from our loved ones, who are in reality His beloved spiritual ideas. God's great love for all His creation is humanly demonstrated in abundant supply for every need, whether this need is for healing of loneliness, grief, lack, or physical discord. We find Christ, Truth, supplying our human needs as we live our understanding of divine Love in daily contact with our fellowmen.
