Christmas is coming

ALBERTA RAFFAELLI

" 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house" not a person was sleeping. Instead, all persons were coughing! The disturbance was coming from all three bedrooms.

Lights had been turned out on this particular Christmas Eve; it was time for children to be asleep. Other family members were in bed at last. Holiday preparations were complete. But now there was disturbance.

The mother of the three children began to realize that it was certainly time to correct this condition. She knew she must deepen her understanding of the spiritual fact that harmony is true, discord untrue. In Science and Health Mrs. Eddy says, "Human sense may well marvel at discord, while, to a diviner sense, harmony is the real and discord the unreal."^{Science and Health, p. 563.}
