Is everything just the same as it used to be? Very few things are, in most communities and societies. Voices tell us, almost as a chorus, that it's an age of ferment. But this is not to say that we can't find stability. The flux exists in the world of human experience. The stability can be found in understanding the world of Spirit.
An invitation to the immutable world of Spirit is extended to you by Christian Science. This Science helps us to look below the surface of change and to cope with it, to understand where change is and what it is. It's steadying to comprehend that alterations in human experience are the direct or indirect result of divine Truth acting on human thought. Admitting this, we don't have to helplessly suffer change or blindly resist all change. Nor can we be lulled into apathetic belief that "nothing is happening." If divine Truth were not impinging on human thought, stirring it up, restructuring it, exposing its mistakes and evils, spiritualizing it, challenging its values, would we not find ourselves living in a rather static world?
To the extent we identify ourselves with divine Truth, then we are allied with good change. We're not victims of change, commentators on it, nor spectators of it. We're confidently aligned with that which is stimulating progressive change. The more we realize that Truth is the initiator of progress and the neutralizer of evil, the more we help support progressive change and modify bad change. And the more stability we find in our own life.
