Poems

Incline thy heart

From the January 1997 issue of The Christian Science Journal


A world has need of laborers in the harvest,
freely receiving, freely giving,
being there
about the Father's business,
staying in the land we call "home":
home—"the land of Christian Science," Mary Baker Eddy, Science and Health, pp. 226-227
where God's law is practiced,
His harmony inherited.

Let each of us pray
that our sowing, our tending, our reaping
go not astray
to other "lands" (matter beliefs/limitations).
For Moses leaving these behind and
Christ Jesus overcoming such,
promised heaven by our keeping of commandments.

Stay! and see
the cleansing, the casting out, the healing, the raising—
the fruits of going not astray
from "prayer, watching, and working,..." Ibid., p. 1
from keeping of the Way.
A world has need of laborers in the harvest.

1 See I Kings 8:58. . .
