What if the billboards on the highway were filled with the qualities and synonyms of God, instead of alluring advertisements?
In my study of Christian Science, I recently started examining what it means to consciously live my life in a way that starts from a spiritual basis—and disproves the attempts of mortal mind to drag my thinking into a material, culture-driven atmosphere. I have learned that my communion with God comes through thinking clearly, recognizing the allness of God, and glorifying the spiritual qualities that I reflect as His child.
At the beginning of this year, it dawned on me that various aspects of my lifestyle needed to change. On a day-to-day basis, I was not living my life in a way that allowed me to have the clarity of thought that is essential for healing through Christian Science. Specifically, I was listening to music and watching TV shows that were contradictory to what I wanted to entertain in my consciousness as a healer. Plus, the judgments I was passing on others were hindering my ability to be loving. I was riding the roller coaster of the “media message,” which was distracting me.
