Prophets and poets, psalmists and apostles, have iterated for ages that true richness is mental; but it has remained for Mary Baker Eddy to rediscover the Principle of real abundance as well as of real health, and to explain this Principle so thoroughly in the nineteenth century that all may avail themselves of spiritual wealth as actually sufficient for every need.
About
twelve years ago when I was first learning of Christian Science and how to apply it in overcoming all discordant conditions, physical and mental, I heard another student of this truth say that whenever error presented itself to her so strongly that a clear comprehension of the Lesson-Sermon or consecutive reading from the Bible or Science and Health seemed impossible, the singing of familiar hymns from the Christian Science Hymnal was resorted to, and peace was always realized.
Never
was there a time when so many prayers for protection ascended from so many loving hearts; prayers that are worded in many strange tongues but with one common purpose, and directed to one common Father who understands them all even before they are uttered.
Christian Science healing is not accomplished by any human means, nor have its teachings anything to do with the carnal mind, but it is the direct result of true prayer.
