Mrs. Eddy writes on page 307 of Miscellaneous Writings: "God gives you His spiritual ideas, and in turn, they give you daily supplies. Never ask for to-morrow: it is enough that divine Love is an ever-present help; and if you wait, never doubting, you will have all you need every moment."
The finding of these lines quoted in the religious article on The Home Forum page of The Christian Science Monitor, and the living of them, changed my life completely. It was my first real look at the Monitor. I pondered that article many hours, and then I called a Christian Science practitioner from the list in the Journal and made an appointment. Such gentleness and compassion I found in that office! The practitioner admonished me in Christ Jesus' words (Matt. 6:33), "Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."
At home I dug out my copy of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, which had been buried for many years, and pored over the first chapter on Prayer. With the help of the practitioner I was quickly healed of smoking and drinking. I was supplied a King James Bible and a current Christian Science Quarterly. In a short time a sum of money came to me from an unexpected source.
