Active, purposeful retirement
Anyone who is contemplating retirement or is already retired can find, in Christian Science, help in adjusting to a new adventure.
Retirement, although it calls for a change in work habits, need not and should not involve a cessation of useful, happy activity. Instead it should present a challenge for the development of innate abilities—abilities consistent with God's purpose for each one of His ideas.
One's God-supplied purpose, which is indicated in human talents, has no starting or termination point. One can never retire from God's purpose for him or her, for it is included in each one's individual spiritual nature as the image of God.
