Every day I find new reasons to be grateful for divine Love's unifying and purifying purpose, and it's time to express this gratitude in writing. I grew up attending a Christian Science Sunday School, but during my teen years I opted to stop attending.

After years of immoral behavior and many discordant, painful relationships based on a false sense of life and love, I reached a point where I was ready to begin my spiritual footsteps home and was gradually led back to the study of Christian Science. In Science and Health Mrs. Eddy defines wilderness as "loneliness; doubt; darkness. Spontaneity of thought and idea; the vestibule in which a material sense of things disappears, and spiritual sense unfolds the great facts of existence" (p. 597). I had had enough of the darkness and was ready to approach the vestibule—I knew I needed to learn more about God.
