The Infinite Resources of God

ness of God as he did, knowing the
nothingness of matter as he did, Jesus
could say to those about him: What
things sOever We desire, when We pray.
believe that ye receive them, and we
shall have them" Christian Science
inspires with the same faith that the
Master possessed, because it reveals
the same truth as he SO wonderfully
set forth
When a man prays the prayer of
spiritual understanding, as Christian
Science teaches him, he strives to
realize the allness of Spirit, strives TO
make clear to himself that because of
the allness of God, spirit is the only
real substance in existence. and that
it is available al all times everywhere.
AS he does this and precisely as he
does this. he rises above the false
sense of material substance and be-
gins to understand the words of Jesus
just quoted. 1t is not a question of
asking God to bestow His spiritual
blessings, but of a man so understand
ing the true nature of God and spirit
ual man as to be able to avail himself
of those blessings. How clearly did
Mrs Eddy see this when she wrote:
Soul has infinite resources with
which to bless mankind, and happiness
would be more readily attained and
would be more secure in our keeping,
if sought in Soul" (Science and
Health, p. 60)
But how, it may be asked, can the
resources of God. Spirit, meet the
needs Of human beings materially?
What happens to human sense is that
as human being gains a knowledge
of God as Spirit, and as fear is re-
moved by this knowledge. he becomes
IL. ~
ton which is solely a material con-
ception of things, and finds himself
obtaining an increased sense of pos
session which takes the form Of meet
ing his human needs. No one who
has erasped to any extent the teach
ings Of Christian Science has failed to
prove for himself the truth of the say
ing of Jesus: Seek We first the king
dom of God. and his righteousness:
and all these things shall be added
unto you"
The resources OF God are not limited
in any way Just as they supply the
So called material needs Of the passing
day, they are present 10 raise up the
sick and to comfort those who mourn.
And how? BY the same mental process
in every case A sick person believes
himself the victim of material law.
He learns through Christian Science
of the truth of being, the allness of
Spirit and spiritual law; and as he
does so, the material beliefs which
bind him are broken and he obtains a
better sense Of health. Similarly with
the disconsolate. Good is unlimited.
Good never can be destroyed or lost or
injured al any time. All that ever can
perish is a finite sense of things. or
false material consciousness. No limit
can be put to the resources of God, be
cause God is infinite Love.
