God Does Help

EVELYN M. S. DUCKETT

Does God exist? If so, can He help with human troubles? If He can, why doesn't He do it more? And how can I enlist God's help when I need it?

These questions perplex a lot of people today. Yet the Bible states categorically, "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." Ps. 46:1; Many people through the ages have found this to be true. But many more are still unconvinced of the effectiveness of God's help.

Christian Science explains that God does exist, that God is good, that He is always at hand, always active, and always supremely powerful. Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, writes, "All that worketh good is some manifestation of God asserting and developing good." Message to The Mother Church for 1900, p. 10; God's qualities are palpable and powerful. As we let them permeate our thought, they permeate and transform our experience.
