The current interest in do-it-yourself projects appealed to me in a new light the other day when I realized how surely Christian Science enables the student of this Science to rely progressively on himself as he learns of his true relation to God. He finds that inventiveness, inspiration, originality, belong to him as the spiritual expression of omniscient Mind, and he begins to enjoy new skills and fresh viewpoints he did not know were his.
When anyone accepts the Christian Science teaching that the one, infinite divine Mind, God, is his Mind by reflection, he cannot escape the logical and comforting conclusion that all the abilities and capacities inherent in this Mind are his to utilize.
Spiritual wholeness and completeness unfold to him as the truth of his being. And he has the joy of knowing that since God, divine Being, is one, is impartial, universal, and boundless, that therefore good, continually unfolding, is available to all. He sees, then, how baseless and unreal are beliefs of lack and of limiting fears and how powerless they are to circumscribe intelligent thought, action, and accomplishment.
