Driven to the deep things of life

I didn’t go to the beach this summer,
but God gave me a sunny-heartedness
to warm my smiles to friends and foes.
Why? Because Life’s unlimited goodness
spreads its canopy over all.

I didn’t breathe the breezy mountain air this summer,
but I felt the freshness of Soul’s ideas.
Why? Because I quieted my goings, to and fro,
with the knowledge of Mind’s oneness
and with Christ’s shepherding law.

I didn’t have much companionship this summer,
but I had a great friend forever: divine Love,
whose presence is perceived through
resolute attachment
to Spirit’s healing reality.

Indeed, the heavenly law of harmony
is here
to “beautify and exalt” Mary Baker Eddy, The People’s Idea of God, p. 7.
