What to do with the resistant trouble

Geoffrey J. Barratt

There is no need for our morale to sag, or for us to try some other treatment, if Christian Science treatment of a specific problem should look fruitless. If we think we're not getting anywhere, we can be sure that infinite Mind, divine Love, has the capacity and the care to show us what we still need to know and do.

One point we may need to see about the resistant condition is that it isn't a special kind of trouble, one that's beyond the power of God. This is a truth we may see theoretically, or in relation to someone else's situation. But we can, in belief, be mesmerized into thinking a condition of our own is somehow outside divine law, the law that all errors are invalid because not of God, the only cause.

We can be absolutely sure of God's omnipresence. There are no problems able to slip through the net, able to get past the healing scope of God's omnipresence. Should some trouble seem to stay more or less the same, our approach to it doesn't have to remain the same so that our treatment of it gets stale.
