Forsaking God.

The Bulletin Board is for gratitude for Christian Science and the Church, as well as timely excerpts from the Bible, the works of Mrs. Eddy, and the early workers that help and encourage. We are very grateful for all posts that conform to these guidelines, but will edit or remove anything that the Practitioners feel is not in complete accord with pure Christian Science or in any way disrespectful of it.

We also ask that you keep your postings as concise as possible. If you quote the Bible, please use The King James Version, as this is what Mrs. Eddy used. Thank you!

    “The LORD is with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek him, he will be found of you; but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you.” (II Chronicles 15:2) It occurs to me that if our motive in seeking God’s help is to achieve a material goal, then if successful we’ll then think we can go on without God’s help, but if our motive is to demonstrate God’s care it is more natural, actually essential, to continue turning to Him.

    Such a simple and yet very important and profound truth!

    I love this , ” The LORD is with you , while ye be with him; and seek him, he will be found of you…” I want to make sure that I am always seeking God and I read something by Martha Wilcox today that helps me. “There is nothing to God and man but consciousness.” This means , to me, that since I am conscious and in God’s consciousness I am always aware of my Creator and continue to seek Him all the time. It is possible to be aware of God at all times… and maybe this is part of “pray without ceasing”.

    Yes! constantly we are bombarded with all the evil, nastiness and illness of this “world,” we are told is real. Our healing prayer must be that the opposite us true. It is all lies, God does not think it, know it, feel it. We must outthink and thus destroy this false sense of reality.
