Mary Baker Eddy closed her autobiographical work, Retrospection and Introspection, with a poem that pretty well sums up her own lifelong aim and what she hoped students of Christian Science would strive for:
Christian Science shows us the certainty of God’s unfailing goodness and grace, and gives us the ability to pray to know this better—not just for ourselves, but also for our communities.
We can take up the struggle to live the spiritual qualities that make up our real being as the reflection of God, divine Truth and Love—and succeed at it.
