All Things Work Together for Good 1 comment
These readings are from the Bible (KJV) and from the textbook of Christian Science, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy and explore the idea that All Things Work Together for Good.
.
It matters not what be thy lot,
So Love doth guide;
For storm or shine, pure peace is thine,
Whate’er betide.
And of these stones, or tyrants’ thrones,
God able is
To raise up seed — in thought and deed —
To faithful His.
Aye, darkling sense, arise, go hence!
Our God is good.
False fears are foes — truth tatters those,
When understood.
Love looseth thee, and lifteth me,
Ayont hate’s thrall:
There Life is light, and wisdom might,
And God is All.
The centuries break, the earth-bound wake,
God’s glorified!
Who doth His will — His likeness still —
Is satisfied.

Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother,

Wednesday Testimony Meeting Readings.
This recording is of the readings on the topic: The Lord Was Not in the Fire.
.
Fear not, I am with thee, O be not dismayed,
For I am thy God, I will still give thee aid;
I’ll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand,
Upheld by My gracious, omnipotent hand;
When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
My grace, all sufficient, shall be thy supply;
The flame shall not hurt thee; I only design
Thy dross to consume and thy gold to refine.
From hymn 123 in the Christian Science Hymnal.
Overcoming Evil with Good 1 comment
These readings are from the Bible (KJV) and from the textbook of Christian Science, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy and are on the topic of Overcoming Evil with Good.
.
.
The only power of evil is to destroy itself. It can never destroy one iota of good. Every attempt of evil to destroy good is a failure, and only aids in peremptorily punishing the evil-doer. If we concede the same reality to discord as to harmony, discord has as lasting a claim upon us as has harmony.
(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy 186:19)

Be of One Mind 1 comment
… be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;
Be of the same mind one toward another. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
(The Bible – KJV: Romans 12: 2, 10, 16, 18)
