In the light of the teachings of Christian Science, when reference is made in the Scriptures to Christ Jesus or his disciples laying hands on someone in the healing work, the act has the significance of putting forth spiritual power.
Everyone should love more than one object or idea—should, perhaps, have thousands of loves—each one different from the others, each one important to all the rest.
When we feel a strong sense of the divine Mind's calling upon us to do healing work for someone, or for ourselves, there is emerging at that point in our experience a clear definition of our place in God's universe and of our mission on earth.
