Because We Have Sought the Lord Our 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!

    2 Chronicles 14: 7 Asa: “Therefore he said unto Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about them walls, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us; because we have sought the LORD our God, we have sought him and he hath given us rest on every side.

    Instead of kicking back and enjoying the peace his land enjoyed, Asa wisely used the time to strengthen his cities. He was not idle. And because he continued to put God first and did not neglect to be thankful, he was delivered in a pretty astounding way from the Ethiopian. I like how the Tuesday Watch also emphasized not to forget God, especially when things are going well.

    “Beware that thou forget not the Lord Thy God,…Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, …Then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the Lord thy God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;” — Deuteronomy 8: 11(to 1st ,), 12, 14
