Our small plane had just taken off from Boston’s Logan Airport. The sporadic clouds made it possible to see only part of the city skyline out the window, but when I looked down, directly below me was The Mother Church. It stood amid the tall skyscrapers, beautiful in its simplicity and grace.
In my mind, I asked God, “What do I need to do to help keep this church safe?” The answer came to me: “My dear daughter, it’s not up to you. It’s My church. I am big enough to keep it safe from the machinations of material existence. Your job is to know I am doing it.”
I asked myself how I could learn that divine Love is taking care of His beloved church. As I prayed, the first idea that came to me was this counsel from page 264 of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy: “We must look where we would walk, and we must act as possessing all power from Him in whom we have our being.” This instructed me to keep my eye on spiritual goals and activities.
