Speaking of God's care for His creation, the Scriptures say, "For that he is strong in power: not one faileth."Isa. 40:26 .
"If 'not one faileth,' why do I have this lack of success in my life?" some might ask. If human endeavor is to be judged by material standards for success, that is a legitimate question. But Christian Science takes a different view.
What is heralded as success in a material world may or may not have much to do with spiritual progress—the only worthy goal for a God-oriented individual. Wealth, power, and position are the materialist's score cards. And these contrast sharply with the spiritual view of success, which includes spiritual sense, compassion, healing, and a wonderful sense of man's unity with his Maker.
