Ageless living

If someone were to ask you, “How old is the number five?” you would consider it a ridiculous question. You know very well that a number is an ageless idea. It doesn’t begin when you write it on a piece of paper or end when you erase it. 

Similarly, we actually have a permanent and ageless identity as the spiritual idea or expression of God, eternal Life, in whom “we live, and move, and have our being,” as the Apostle Paul says (Acts 17:28). And as Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, affirms, speaking of God as Life, “Life is the everlasting I am, the Being who was and is and shall be, whom nothing can erase” (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 290). 

I have found in my own experience over many decades that understanding and accepting my spiritual identity as my only real identity, as Christian Science teaches, brings God’s healing power into my experience with very practical, healing results.
