Inspiration that stirs action

ELISE L. MOORE

What is your purpose in reading this magazine? Curiosity? A search for a welcome feeling of calm and peace that you've found before in reading Christian Science literature? Some who read the Sentinel are searching for specific answers to specific challenges. Others want to learn more about God and the spiritual nature of man. Some want to heal. Others yearn to be healed.

Is your reading fulfilling your purpose? Are you being freed from fear by your study of the Bible and the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy?

The answer is yes if you are inspired by your study to act in a wholly new way. Some meanings of inspire are to guide by divine influence, to animate, to have an enlivening effect. Our reading and study fulfill their purpose when we are inspired by God to put thoughts into action.
