How to help your world

NATHAN A. TALBOT

A lot of people want to help. Admittedly, some don't much care. But it's heartwarming to see how many individuals and diverse private and governmental organizations spring into action around the world when a major disaster strikes. Literally millions have been beneficiaries of charitable efforts during times of earthquake, flood, famine, war.

Obviously, not everyone can rush to the scene. Many have found, instead, ways to use their talents in support of rescue and care efforts. Christian Scientists are often involved in various human efforts to help. But beyond these steps, metaphysicians see the power of scientific prayer as bringing invaluable aid to those who have been victimized. It's not unusual to find articles in this magazine by individuals who illustrate their application of effective prayer in times of tragedy.
