In the Christian Science Bible Lesson

This week’s photographic inspiration and related text.

Pain can be silenced

When our belief in material conditions ceases, pain ceases. God is proven to be the all-powerful, ever-present creator, the one Mind.
Each one of us is tenderly governed by spiritual law. Under this law, there is no evil source or influence—nothing that can wrongly divert any individual’s real purpose to bless.

Whale song

Whatever the difficulty may be, prayer is a way to go deeper and see and hear spiritual solutions that are simply not recognizable by staying on the material surface.

The importance of yielding

Though yielding to God ultimately opens the way for healing, the even more gratifying reward is the inner security and joy we are sure to feel from gaining clearer insights into our true, spiritual identity as Love’s cherished expression.
My prayers weren’t about altering a material ankle. They were all about being more clearly aware of my true, spiritual identity—my only identity—as Mind’s idea.
I realized I’d taken the church for granted all these years, assuming it would always be there if and when I was ready to come back to it.

The angel book

Betsy decided to write down all the things she was afraid of about camp and then ask God about each of them.

The only thing left was Love

As a kid, she’d loved Christian Science. But as high school graduation neared, none of what she’d learned in Sunday School made sense anymore. Or so she thought.

Navigating chaotic times with prayer

No matter what appears to be going on, we can experience God’s government in order, peace, and abundance.
I felt the truth of God’s words from Joel 2:25: “I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten.” God had restored the lost years between my dad and me.

Prayer is in the listening

Prayer that begins with words helps to clear the way for us to hear and feel the deeper, resonant voice of God.
