Yielding to God's Will

Carl J. Welz

Healing in Christian Science comes through response to God's will. And Christian Science reveals to us what God's will is. It shows that God is divine Principle, Mind, Love. He is the incorporeal I am, the Ego that is the source and substance of all identity. Man is the idea, or reflection, of this Ego.

Actually, response to the will of God is the only condition or action man has.

The problem we face is that what we see in the world and in space contains much that appears to contradict the harmonious condition and healthy action this revelation implies. Violence, strife, corruption, greed, inequity, disaster, disease, suffering, frustration, could not possibly be the will of the Ego that is divine Principle, Love, omniscient, omnipotent Mind. Does Christian Science say that these are to be ignored because they are not of God? No. It says they are to be overcome through yielding to God's will.
