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!

Thank you, Bruce! For some reason the meaning of this verse has escaped me all these years. I always interpreted “with lovingkindness I have drawn thee” to mean that God made or designed each one of us individuals with lovingkindness (as if He did it in a drawing!). I now see I just had the wrong meaning of the word “drawn”. I love learning more about God’s love, that you’ve so beautifully illustrated here.
