Overheard on a recent transpacific flight: two less-than-frequent travelers marveling over the dazzling array of control buttons on their first-class lounge seats. The problem was, there were no instructions telling what all the buttons did. A fellow passenger confessed that the week before, he'd spent the entire fourteen-hour trip with his knees bent, because he didn't know you could extend the footrest!
When we do have instructions, we can better appreciate what technology offers: a vast menu of options to control many things. Yet so many areas of life can't be adjusted with the push of a button—health, injustice, painful memories.
This month's cover feature speaks of God's universal law of loving control, which cares for all needs. It points to instructions in the Bible and in the writings of Mary Baker Eddy for applying that law, with healing results. Other articles this month show how people have proved God's control in situations of sickness, pressure, crime, and in other emergencies.
