Peace, be still.

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!

    “And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.”

    Recently I have been using the excerpt below as part of my weather Watches and for the world in general:
    “When Jesus stilled the waves, His only words were: ‘…Peace, be still.’ (Mark 4:39) Isn’t this a wonderful treatment? ‘Peace, be still.’ It becomes necessary for us to realize a ‘Peace, be still’ to every disturbance, to every disturbed thought, and therefore, to all discor­dant or inharmonious outer conditions. When Jesus said, ‘Peace, be still,’ he was not direct­ing his thought to the troubled waves or to the storm. He was not addressing disturbed thought, the disturbed mind of the disciples, of those on board the ship. Nor was he ad­dressing them as person, but rather to the universal belief of a disturbed thought, to the universal belief of a mind apart from God; to the universal belief of inharmonious inner and outer conditions, he was declaring: ‘PEACE, BE STILL!'”
