Hope and Quietly Wait On the LORD

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!

    Lamentations 3:26 It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

    “To labor and to wait…” MBE p.230 Misc.
    I have found that waiting is an active quality that is not stagnant or slothful. Work and then wait with anticipation to see what God has in store.

    “Let us then, be up and doing,
    With a heart for any fate;
    Still achieving, still pursuing,
    Learn to labor and to wait.”

    Thank you for this post! Along these lines, Mrs. Eddy wrote on the subject of waiting on God, to “J.L.” in the “Blue Book” (p. 116), the following:

    “When you are in perplexity or doubt about some important question that must be decided, keep your mind still; cease thinking and wait, that the still, small voice may speak. No words may come to you; nevertheless you will have asked your question. Wait – when the moment arrives, the decision you will have.”
