Heavens of Thought

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!

    This morning I came across a beautiful passage from Prose Works, (The Way). I’d jotted it down years ago on the backside of a CS pamphlet on spiritual sight. Rereading it again, Mrs. Eddy’s powerfully inspiring words stir such a sense of expansive wonder and awe at God’s infinite Goodness and Love.

    “Hold thy gaze to the light, and the iris of faith, more beautiful than the rainbow
    seen from my window at the close of a balmy autumnal day will span thy heavens of
    thought.” (pg. 355)

    How perfect for this week’s Bible Lesson. “Close your eyes again, and you may see landscapes, men, and women. Thus you learn that these also are images, which mortal mind holds and evolves and which simulate mind, life, and intelligence. From dreams also you learn that neither mortal mind nor matter is the image or likeness of God, and that immortal Mind is not in matter.”

    Joyful blessings,

    Rae

    Thank you so much for this Rae. I love this quote by Mrs. Eddy and do think of it often now that the hand of God is beginning to transform all the summer greens into autumn’s blazing colors. What a tremendous gift we have in Mrs. Eddy’s words and in her works.
