Through my study and practice of Christian Science, I have found that communication with God is entirely natural. Because each of us is the child—the idea—of God, the divine Mind, communication with our Father-Mother is the result of being precisely what God has created us to be: witnesses to His allness and goodness. His Christ, speaking to human consciousness, forever unfolds exactly what we need to know to bless and be blessed, exactly when we need to know it. 

Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer of Christian Science, writes in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures: “Thought passes from God to man . . . . The intercommunication is always from God to His idea, man” (p. 284). Hearing God’s Word is therefore the outcome of our innate spiritual connection to God. We each can trust our ability to hear and know what God is saying to us. 

I had an experience in which an angel thought from God came to me in a manner similar to that mentioned in Scripture: “Thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left” (Isaiah 30:21).
