Love Is the Healer

NELLE OLDACRE SPROWLS

Christian Science heals spiritually by its revelation that the infinite Parent, God, is divine Love. He showers limitless good upon man, His image and likeness. The heavenly Father has already provided every blessing—health, abundance, joy—for His creation. No sickness, no sin, is too difficult for the healing power of divine Love, God, who holds creation eternally embraced in the glowing warmth of His love,

Christ Jesus knew the love of the Father. He relied upon this love and constantly demonstrated its power in his own experience and in the lives of those who came to him. He said, "If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?"^{Matt. 7:11;}

In Science and Health Mrs. Eddy makes this truth abundantly clear. We read: "Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need. It is not well to imagine that Jesus demonstrated the divine power to heal only for a select number or for a limited period of time, since to all mankind and in every hour, divine Love supplies all good."^{Science and Health, p. 494;}
