After Christ Jesus fed the hungry multitude, he asked that the fragments of the meal be gathered up so nothing would be lost. What remained after everyone was satisfied filled twelve baskets—a telling sign of God’s abundant provision, as well as a lesson in the wise conservation of divine blessings.
What better way to follow Jesus’ example in our own lives than by writing for the Christian Science periodicals? Gathering up the inspired thoughts that have fed us, and sharing them in an article or testimony, ensures that none of those healing ideas are lost. Rather, they are passed on to others who are hungering for the good news of Christ’s activity in the world today. In turn, readers can reap the blessings by applying the truth for themselves.
Communicating one’s inspiration and fruitage is a selfless endeavor, and it renders a gift that reaches around the world and across the ages. Each piece published in our periodicals becomes part of the permanent healing record of the Church of Christ, Scientist, and is preserved for generations of seekers to come.
