I opened up the Blue Book to p. 169;
‘The strong soil in human nature is selfish apathy. The wayside soil is transient laughing vain loving-ease character that never can be relied (on) in time of need. The sun struck mind is one that resists the light if this light demand the relinquishment of all that tends to darken life, dim conscience, and demand other gods. The good soil is the active honest heart. Where this exists there is energy, fidelity, success and reward gained by the individual, not a gift of God but the wages of uprightness and hard work, struggle and victory.’ (From article entitled ‘Soldier, Seed, and Soil’.)

That wasn’t so bad!! I allow myself to dislike typing but have to overcome that silly (and destructive error) because what better way to share God’s Word. Mrs. Eddy proved that with the days of study and prayer that she put in to give us God’s perfection.
