I do always those things that please him

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!

    After reading the lesson and seeing that the Bible ends with the strong and definitive statement “we have the mind of Christ”, I had to ask what the basic idea is about having this mind. Jesus made the basic statement about his unity with the Father when he said “He that sent me is with me: the Father hath left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.” I am thankful that Jesus followed with this explanation that he did what pleased the Father, and not just left it with he is one with the Father only. There is a motivation behind everything I think, say and do, so if it is to please the Father, like the example of Jesus, I can feel my unity with Him and realize that I have the same Mind. This is a comforting thought, but it also clarifies the requirement to having the mind of Christ.
