These readings are from a Wednesday Testimony Meeting in Canberra. They are on the topic of God as the divine Father-Mother of all.
.
We thank Thee and we bless Thee,
O Father of us all,
That e’en before we ask Thee
Thou hear’st Thy children’s call.
We praise Thee for Thy goodness
And tender, constant care,
We thank Thee, Father-Mother,
That Thou hast heard our prayer.
(The Christian Science Hymnal 374)
The spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.
(The Bible KJV – Job 33: 4)

He hath made every thing beautiful in his time:
(The Bible KJV – Ecclesiastes 3: 11)

Father-Mother is the name for Deity, which indicates His tender relationship to His spiritual creation. … “For we are also His offspring.”
(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy p332)

When a hungry heart petitions the divine Father-Mother God for bread, it is not given a stone, — but more grace, obedience, and love.
