Of Good Report

From desperation to gratitude

From the February 2017 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I yearned for answers. I had been earnestly praying for weeks and months—much of the time with the loving, tender, and inspired help of a Christian Science practitioner. I was yearning for assurance that my choice to enter the profession of commercial real estate sales had indeed been God-directed. I had taken every conceivable step toward gaining the professional expertise required, and I worked tirelessly contacting real estate owners and potential purchasers. Through this I gained many positive relationships, but to no financial avail.

I loved thinking about the numerous examples in the Bible of God’s infinite supply blessing all.

I knew that my motive was right—I had not approached this profession with a lust for money, but with the keen desire to bless the individuals I was in contact with through my knowledge of real estate. However, my wife and I were having serious trouble meeting our financial obligations.
