I love praying to see all of goodness all around me. This prayer will include everyone I meet for the rest of the day. I became a Christian Science Practitioner to enable people find me who wanted to experience this goodness of God. Even just a small faith in God brings healing.
Jesus said "If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you". (Matthew 17:20)
God is life. Knowing this brings liveliness to my activities. I love water…. swimming in it, surf boarding it, sailing it. I love watching my son kite-surf; seeing my grandsons score goals, watching my daughter hang out out on a dinghy’s trapeze; helm a yacht. I love watching my other daughter enhance her art centre with tree houses, play football, swing a golf club and roam the globe with her family. I love everything good my friends achieve.
We are told in the Bible that God is good and is a seven fold power: Love, Life, Truth, Mind, Soul, Spirit, Principle.
Life is for living!
Truth is for speaking.
Mind is for knowing.
Soul is for seeing beauty everywhere.
Spirit is for lifting thought above the material view of things.
Love is for sharing and freeing the power of the laws of Principle in our lives.
And when we turn our thinking to this universal view of God we faze out the static of bad experiences which could mesmerise us. Experiencing all the love of God around us brings comfort…. In fact when one feels Love within ourselves, this is the Comforter itself which Jesus said would come to us. Mary Baker Eddy said she recognised this Comforter to be Divine Science (page 55 of her book Science and Health, with key to the Scriptures.)
When we think like God we experience God. This is the kingdom of heaven.
And I hope to help people find it within themselves.
