GRATITUDE

From the November 1897 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The loving invitation to see the Mother at her home in Concord, was responded to as of one mind, one accord; and we gathered together under the canopy of heaven, broad as Truth and boundless as Love, that covers all God's sons and daughters, as under the shadow of the Almighty.

Our Independence Day is typical of the "new birth." "Where the spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty" (independence). We are called to a higher proclamation and demonstration of liberty.

Jesus said: "Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these" (Mark, 12: 29-31).
