“One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple” (Psalms 27:4).
During the early years of my marriage, this verse was my prayer. Our young family was living in a lovely small town, but there was no Christian Science branch church there. I was bundling up babies to take them to church some miles away, and I longed to belong to a church that was in my own town.
Seemingly out of the blue, but after much prayer, my husband was offered a position in a large city where there were several Christian Science churches. We knew very little about the area. In fact, after we bought our house there, we actually had to buy a map to figure out where it was located!
