Express What You Want to Experience

MIRIAM BECKHOFF DAMSGAARD

Maybe the person you've been going with has broken up with you and you feel lonely and hurt. Maybe you've moved to a new city and you haven't found a group of young people you feel comfortable with.

Your experience and your world are one, and you make this world by your thoughts and acts. Problems often seem to arise out of external circumstances, but the fears, doubts, and angry reactions constituting the real problem are in your own thought. And it's right there—in consciousness—that the overcoming and the spiritual enrichment take place.

The solution always begins when you wake up to realize that you are not just an isolated, chance-governed person. You are spiritual, God-created, and empowered by divine Love. In Christian Science you find that God is your Life, your Mind, your very being and existence. As His image and likeness you already reflect all that is real and good. Your individual consciousness is an expression of God's perfection and completeness.
