The Power in Our Life

From the July 1976 issue of The Christian Science Journal


It takes thought to make a plan, power and intelligence to carry it out. Since God, Love, is the only Mind, Love's design is the only plan. The Father-Mother of all is omnipotent Love, the Mind of the infinite universe. And God, Love, has all power, all intelligence, in carrying out His plan. This is fact, and it operates in our experience as omnipotent law in the degree that we understand it, hold to it, and reflect Truth and Love.

A student of Christian Science found it extremely helpful to dwell often on the fact of Love's perfect design—to declare that Love's design is supreme, ever operating as the only influence and activity in our lives. This enabled him to realize that because there is no mortal mind to talk to God, Mind (for Mind is Spirit), neither could there be a mortal mind (material sense) to talk to him or to know him in his real being as individual, spiritual man.

God, Spirit, omnipotent Love, is eternal individuality and is reflected by all spiritual individuality. Each one really exists as individual, spiritual man, not physical personality. It does so much for us to identify ourselves as individual, spiritual man, filling our perfect place in the divine order. Acknowledgment of Love's design, ever operating, causes us to know, to feel, the presence and love of God—infinite individuality—and our individual oneness with the Father-Mother.
