In all work for ourselves and
others We can anticipate a subStan-
tial lessening of the so-called forces
OF evil until there is absolutely no
sin, disease, or death TO be over
come. Christian work requires a
large measure Of universal love and

| Gods warriors, His beloved sons and
daughters, are armed with divine
Love. Loves weapons are the ideas
! Of Truth, and they are more power
full than any claim Of evil.
Christian Science teaches that
man reflects all that God is and
all that He has. Knowing that there
are Indispensable human footsteps
yet to be taken, the Scientist ayails
himself, at the present time, Of
every conceivable thought Of good
ness, small though it may appear TO
be- From the standpoint Of present
acceptance of the one God, the one
Spirit, he proceeds and progresses
into a life that is richer in divine
substance and love.
Science enables us TO perceive that
the only real universe is the uni
verse Of Spirit, and that mortals
must finally accept the government
of divine, impartial Love. The
! Christian Scientist is willing 10

to accept. the divine law and order,
while he looks TO the Christ TO chart
the course of his own life. The
promise of Holy Writ for the world,
with the fulfllment of divine proph-
ecy finds ready acceptance by all
true Scientists. Claims of warning
| nations and Of sick, SHINING or dis
COrdant humanity should be met
with thoughts OF Truth and Love.
Let us pray with consciousness of
present day spiritual blessing, and
prove by our thought and deeds
that we have found the way. The
whole world awaits the completed
demonstration Of divine Science.
Seeking the pure ideas Of Truth and
abiding in Spirit, We can prove that
we have found the light which does
not fail.
We cannot progress by attempt
ing TO tear down another's good
work or sincere effort. We must be
willing to let God destroy evil in
His own good time and way. Human
ly speaking, our footsteps should
be those which indicate not only
full recognition Of every good meas
ure, but a positive assurance OF re-
lief from all phases Of materially
through mans perfect reflection OF
the divine Mind God will annihilate
every thing or thought unlike Him
self. We can rest in that spiritual
| fact. To this end-for the deStruc-
ton OF evil-Was Christian Science
| born. And for the Cause OF Truth,
we too, like Jesus, the Christ, and
the Discoverer Of Christian Science,
must be willing to work as faithful
witnesses to the teachings of Truth.
! God never deserts His loyal fol-
lowers. OF that fact there Is abun-
dant proof not only in the Bible, but
in the lives of all those who have
proved that they love only good.
| Christlikeness among men will al
ways bring blessing and healing, and
bring to fulfllment the promises Of
the inspired Word.
Spiritual Sense Our Best Guide
It is true that evil or ungodly
thinking has no place in Gods plan
| for the redemption and healing OF
| mankind But divine Spirit with
loving does provide a puri-
flying way. Why? Because Principle,
the source of all creation, never
ceases to bless and TO cherish. Such
is the nature of Love and the result
| Of its law Even Wayfarlng men,
| fools, or those seemingly ignorant
of Gods direction can awaken TO
the truth about themselves and be
! healed. Science shows that mankind
can rid itself Of the CRIME and the
soil Of carnality, for God is avail
able to all For ali human ills He
! provides the necessary spiritual
knowledge and understanding, His
way of salvation through His Science
! is safe and sure. Through His in
spired Word and the teachings Of
Mrs. Eddy, Love gives the required
discipline and correction. But with
Truth comes also Joy and healing.
Man never need fear the workings
Of God.
We may think OF ourselves as
wayfaring ones and sometimes even
fools, because of the things we may
| have said or done. But God knows
us only as His blessed and obedient
children, and as such We are never
outside of His care and His love.
In Holy Writ, as interpreted by
! Christian Science we discover mans
true selfhood and place. 1t is
| selfhood capable Of representing
true affection and wisdom in heal
ing. coinciding with good Judgment
! in the order of human affairs. To
everyone in bondage to sin, sick
ness, or limitation there can come
a vision of Christ and It's healing
/ power. In the words OF one great
/ humanitarian, Man must be free
to find God in his own way; and
when he finds God, he finds truth;
and that truth makes him free
Yes, freedom to find God Is our
| greatest blessing. But 1t must be by
way of Gods appointment, else fall
ure ensues at the start, and the
end is not good. Spiritual sense is
our best guide for the Journey, for
1t takes us away from worldly sense
into hCaven-hlled Soul We desire
much good, do We not? Then we
must be prepared and ready for
service In that service, spiritual
sense will always be our best guide
and protection. Relying on Truth,
we cannot fail TO heal and be healed.
