One day while laboring with a sense of fatigue and pain which seemed to begin quite suddenly, I opened the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, to page 502. I was very much awakened and aroused when I read the following spiritually enlightening sentences: "The infinite has no beginning. This word beginning is employed to signify the only,— that is, the eternal verity and unity of God and man, including the universe."
I could see immediately that the only beginning there ever was or could be is the unity of the true man with his Father-Mother God. This unity is something that has always existed and can never end. As I pondered the passage, I could see very clearly that error was only a dream and really never had a beginning. It was unfolded to me that the true man cannot possibly experience anything that does not originate in God. Nothing can ever separate God from His idea, man. The peace and harmony of the man of God's creating can never be interrupted or touched by error of any kind.
As I reasoned in this manner, the pain and weariness disappeared, and I was free. These errors never were true because they never were a part of the beginning, nor were they included in the perfect unity of God and man. They were unknown to God and to my true selfhood and therefore were never real.
