Spiritual Short

Out and about—with prayer

From the September 2019 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Almost every time I drive by our local schools, I ask God for inspiration on praying for their students and staff. Sometimes I take one synonym for God and think about the qualities that especially relate and how they are present for everyone in the school.

For instance, I affirm that God as Mind is all-knowing. Hence, God always knows where His children, His ideas, are. Mind’s ideas can never stray from God, in whom there is no evil to harm. As His perfect, spiritual creation, all are arrayed in constant right relation to Mind and to each other.

I love to conclude my prayers by acknowledging God as the source of everyone’s inspiration and by recognizing that knowing the truth about God and about His children does help.
