God’s permanent care
Originally published in Spanish
What peace we have from knowing that, regardless of circumstances, we are always safe in God’s omnipresence. His infinite love encircles each one of us, and His ineffable laws of Life, Truth, and Love govern all aspects of our lives.
This was demonstrated to me several years ago when I was trying to sell an apartment that I owned with a friend. One morning I had many tasks, including renewing the seller’s permit. On my way to work, I prayed with the concepts of God’s allness and His governance of our affairs.
The subject of the Christian Science Bible Lesson that week was “Mind.” I kept reminding myself that God is Mind, divine Principle, encompassing His entire universe of ideas without forgetting any of them, and that since I am a spiritual idea of God, I would have all I needed to fulfill the demands of the day.
