In the Christian Science Bible Lesson

The night I felt God's love

"You can't be different from perfect way God makes you."

When they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying, Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatic, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.

A little faith

Faith isn't blind. It's not just a matter of looking on the sunny side, either.

In essence, it came down to what I believed. Did these little white sticks have more power over me than my heavenly Father?

398 more days until Christmas

When I was ready for Christmas, all the men I encountered were ready, too.

As I ask God about the order of my day, I am sometimes drawn to tasks that are not even on my list.

If you have been falsely accused

When the inspection was over, my neighbor apologized to me privately.

I recognized more clearly the unbroken continuity of life.

Sailing forward from an abusive past

No longer did I feel I had been abused or dominated; I felt I had been restored a hundredfold.

I feel free!

God makes all of us free, happy, and whole, and He keeps us that way always.

If love is not returned

You're never truly unwanted or unloved.
There are definitely ideas worth dwelling on in prayer—and others that don't deserve a moment's notice.
