Q: Many people are legitimately unable to take two weeks off from work, yet still hope for the time that class instruction might be a possibility. Have you considered publishing a series of articles that might duplicate (somewhat) the class instruction experience? I truly would prefer this to waiting another ten years when class instruction could be done.
A: Thank you for your question. It brings to mind a verse from Revelation: “Behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it” (3:8). That door is wide open not only for you, but for all who, like yourself, so earnestly yearn for the possibility of taking class instruction without having to wait a long period of time.
“Desire is prayer,” Mary Baker Eddy writes on page one of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, the Christian Science textbook, which she considered the ultimate teacher. She continues, “and no loss can occur from trusting God with our desires, that they may be moulded and exalted before they take form in words and in deeds.”
