Never too busy

GLENN M. LINDEN

Doesn't each day provide new opportunities for expressing love toward our fellowman? Perhaps a gentle expression of concern for one who is in need of love? Or a word of cheer or encouragement? Or a silent, healing thought in what appears to be a discordant situation?

Are we ever too busy to express love in ways that will be understood and appreciated?

The basis for loving one's neighbor is the scientific fact that God is Love and the real, spiritual man is the very expression of Love. Man's consciousness, man's individuality, are the result of this continuing relationship. Mrs. Eddy states this clearly: "The spiritual man's consciousness and individuality are reflections of God. They are the emanations of Him who is Life, Truth, and Love."^{Science and Health, p. 336;}
