THE aim of education should be to raise the standard of daily living, to direct thought toward the contemplation of something better and purer than worldly pleasures or gain, and so fit the individual to achieve a good mental standard rather than merely earn a living.
On page 258 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy we find this statement: "God expresses in man the infinite idea forever developing itself, broadening and rising higher and higher from a boundless basis." This truth thoroughly understood and digested dispels for all time the fear that man, the complete and perfect expression of God, could lack any good thing or that his supply could be uncertain.
As in ascending a mountain one gains a constantly broadening view, so as progress is made in spiritual growth one achieves a wider range of thought. Through this broader vision one beholds a universe expressing God, good, in place of an inharmonious individual, family, or community. Spiritual man expresses God's glory in continuous unfoldment and growth. Since God knows no boundary or limitation, man in His image knows none.
