Reject! Accept! Expect!

BEVERLY JEAN SCOTT

Reject—accept—expect. What do these three words have to do with Christian Science? How can we use them in healing?

Reject—that's a strong word, isn't it? In Christian Science treatment, or healing prayer, one learns that it is necessary to see evil, or error, as unreal and to reject it from his consciousness.

"What good will that do?" some may ask. Well, simply this: by un seeing the trouble, by realizing that it is no part of our true being, which is the spiritual image of God, we separate ourselves from it. Hence, by rejecting, or throwing out, a belief in sickness, sadness, sin, or anything that's not good, we clear our channels of thought and make way for God's goodness. Which leads us to the second word, accept.
