There
sometimes comes a time in the lives of men when every material support fails; when they are brought face to face with the fact that either God must save them or they go out into a night without the guidance of a ray of light,—into a long, cold night of discord,—helpless and alone.
At
a recent Wednesday evening experience meeting I was deeply impressed with testimonies given, which told of healing received through the study of the Lesson-Sermon, and the value of these Lessons was again borne in upon my thought.
As
Christian Scientists we understand somewhat of the Science of being, through and by which God governs man and the universe, and know that to the divine Mind, operating through His own spiritual law, all things are possible.
The
thought is often expressed by those who have no knowledge of Christian Science, that the Old Testament is uninteresting, or at least that portion of it which deals with the history of the Jewish people, their journeys, victories, and defeats.
Among
the many specific reasons for gratitude to which our thoughts may revert at the Thanksgiving season, there is perhaps none more worthy of our attention than gratitude itself.
Much
may be said as to the character of testimonies to be given at our Wednesday evening meetings,—not that any should be barred, but that wisdom should govern their telling; and this in view of the fact that there may be many who are taking their initial steps in Christian Science by attendance at these meetings.
