VISITING VERSUS DWELLING

From the October 1945 issue of The Christian Science Journal

That morning she had prayed that God would illumine her consciousness with some thought of Truth that would break the mesmerism of the suffering sense picture.

The student looked up the word "dwell" in the dictionary and found its meaning was to abide—to live or to remain stable or fixed in some place.
