What Christian Science Means to Me

Christian Science and the growth one makes is indescribable.  The sense of God is palpable, how many religions can say the same?  The fact that I live a life without an underlying or constant sense of fear is credit to Christian Science.  I never need to be deeply worried to the core when I know that no matter what happens to me, I can always be helped.  There is always a truth that can uncover the darkness.  When things are difficult, if I wasn't a Christian Scientist they would be so much harder and more difficult.  I see that when I hear the 'normal public' speak about their lives.  We are lucky to live under such auspices. 

 

My children know that they have prayer as a resource should they be in a dire situation ever.  I know that if something happened to them where they were seemingly unreachable physically, which would normally be a parent's worst nightmare, God would be there and they would be reaching to Him.

 

God is in the room where I do my daily praying.  God makes my life easier, happier, more joy-filled.  I like the link to God through Christian Science, even though sometimes it is hard to understand.  When struggling to get to a truth through the tears I always KNOW I will make it in the end.  Sometimes I feel I hold my breathe with the sense of God in my life and through the healings.  I am in awe.  And God gives me all this for free, as a given and constantly.  I don't have to do anything to deserve it.  I have it as a divine right.  I feel very blessed, and am known for always smiling and being joyful.  Yet I have faced just as many life problems as anyone else, more in fact than most I know.  But because Science is there and heals so completely I don't carry around everything I have ever grown through, every resentment, every past mistake.  I don't wear my past problems as a badge or hold them up as a pile of things for pity. 

 

The freedom means each day I am new and have a new chance.  Spirituality is a feeling of something so much greater than the word implies.   I can't describe God and what he does for me, I can just smile and be joyfilled and hold it all close to my heart.
