Express God's Perfect Health

THOMAS BUSHNIE

Health actually is no more chancy than is the multiplication table. Health is not doled out in small quantities. It is not an exclusive, personal possession fluctuating according to one's good or bad fortune. It is unvarying and always abundantly available to everyone.

As a divine quality, health, or wholeness, is in and of God. The Psalmist prayed for God's face to shine on us "that thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health among all nations." Ps. 67:2; Being of God, Spirit, health must be perfect and spiritual; it must be infinite and ever present with us. The real, spiritual man, who the Bible tells us is God's image and likeness, effortlessly individualizes this ever-present divine quality, health.

Sickness, then, Christian Science reveals, is not a state of physicality, is not the result of germs or malfunction as we have for so long been taught to believe. Sickness is merely a bodily indication that, in belief, the divine quality health is being rendered temporarily inactive in our experience by our entertaining, becoming mesmerized by, some false belief called a certain illness.
