Inescapable blessings

EVELYN M. S. DUCKETT

Many people agree in theory that everyone should have a fair share in the good things of life. But there is little general agreement about the way to accomplish this.

Material methods may advocate either a taking from one to give to another or a willingness to accept a smaller portion all around. Some would like to make everyone's share exactly the same. Christian Science presents quite a different— a spiritual—way.

Because this way has a spiritual basis, not a material one, it stresses the inherent universality of spiritual being. God is Spirit. Man is spiritual. Substance is spiritual, consisting of spiritual qualities. God blesses man by providing him with the substance of these qualities, and this substance is infinite and inexhaustible.
