Our
lives are often lit by the lampsOf other people's kindness,So when hope grows dimThey kindle it afresh:Like warm, shaded lamps,Afloat in the dark poolOf an uncurtained room,They beckon us homeward.
What are we celebrating in Christmas? Something of the past, some gift long since given? Or are we discovering what is going on now, what God is showing us His nature—and ours?
Divine law is all that has a hold on us, and that hold is as benign and tender as it is powerful.

In
the progress of mankind there are times that call for extraordinary courage, mercy, and perspective.
It's not just children that can look forward to waking up on Christmas morning. There's a spiritual dawn that awaits all of us.
Christmas gifts may come in all sorts of packages, but the ones that are pure love always mean the most.
My
coming into Christian Science reminds me of this verse from Isaiah: "Bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth.
At one time I found I couldn't raise my arm to attend to my hair or even to put my coat on without severe pain.
The lips are silent and the heart speaks when I remember the blessings I have had through Christian Science.
