Confides all to 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!

    “‘Believe … and thou shalt be saved!’ demands self-reliant trustworthiness, which includes spiritual understanding and confides all to God.” from Science and Health by Mary Baker Eddy, page 23

    During Sunday’s Roundtable it was brought out that all we do should be from the stand point of demonstration. Showing forth God’s presence and power daily in our lives. It is a discipline to never be off guard and to not allow yourself to drift. I am grateful for Gilbert Carpenter’s book, “Mary Baker Eddy, Her Spiritual Footsteps” where he explains in practical ways how Christian Science was demonstrated daily down to the smallest details in Mrs. Eddy’s home. Otherwise the human mind takes over and leaves God out. Our Lesson mentions faith 22 times. David did not just inherit his position. Step by step he demonstrated his faith and connection with God.

    “Outwardly those in important positions in our Movement would appear to rank high; but in God’s sight the only important work is demonstration; and that is a work that is open to all students.” From Precepts 2 by Gilbert Carpenter
