Discovering what God has caused to be

AMY W. GATES

The version of life based on material conditions, rather than on spiritual facts of God's creating, makes existence a struggle for illusive happiness and peace. This view supposes that our lives need some added good to be complete—a husband, a wife, a child, a more challenging career, or a particular circumstance. It supposes a void in God's present fatherhood and in our present sonship.

But our happiness and peace have their base in spiritual reality, not in the fluctuations of unreality.
