Memory and gratitude
Memory helps keep our lives organized, balanced, and productive. Should we be fearful that age or injury could put our memory in peril? The law of God assures us that memory need not be lost.
Mary Baker Eddy writes in Science and Health: "If delusion says, 'I have lost my memory,' contradict it. No faculty of Mind is lost. In Science, all being is eternal, spiritual, perfect, harmonious in every action. Let the perfect model be present in your thoughts instead of its demoralized opposite" (p. 407).
Science and Health teaches that God is Mind, the only Mind, and that man reflects the all-intelligence of Mind. Wisdom, retention, and comprehension have their basis in Mind and are expressed by man as God's reflection.
