Keeping God in all our thoughts.

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!

    “The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.” Psalm 10 : 4

    I am grateful for the prayers and instructions, from my practitioner here, that are helping me to bring, “into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;” (2 Corinthians 10: 5)
    I once read “How you talk to yourself can either move you forward or keep you stuck.” (I might add, or move you in the opposite direction to where you need to go.) “God is not in all his thoughts” surely will keep me stuck. I would ask myself what benefit do I believe I get in staying in the negative? – God not in my thoughts.

    Following the principles taught here provide many practical tools to help us keep “moving on” the straight and narrow path. I reminded myself today of some; work for God, Watch, focus on the present moment, surround yourself with people who put God first, take time with God, practice what you learn, be patient, don’t give up, refocus when you go off, be open to correction and let pride be burned out, take time with the word of God as found in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy and the Bible, be honest, make a covenant with God, be grateful.

    Thank you for this post. Loved the list of “practical tools to help us keep ‘moving on’ the straight and narrow path.” A good list to keep handy. Only one or two things I can think of to add is to be joyful and laugh at error’s ridiculous lies (as a Plainfield practitioner has had to remind me to do more than once).
