Once to Every Soul and Nation
We offer this poem with the concept of uplifting thought in support of the war in Ukraine. “Standeth God within the shadow
Keeping watch beside His own.” 3/6/2022
by James Russell Lowell
1 Once to every soul and nation
Comes the moment to decide,
In the strife of truth with falsehood
For the good or evil side;
Some great cause, God's new Messiah
Offering each the bloom or blight,
And the choice goes by for ever
'Twixt that darkness and that light.

Divine Love continuously imparts the patience, love, and humility that silence the fear of the unknown in the wilderness of loneliness and doubt. This Love brings out the right sense of the ever-present, God-given supply that provides for all human needs, as we see in the Bible story of Hagar (See Gen 16)., and mentioned in Steve Warren’s piece, titled “The God who sees me.”
A quote from a Sentinel Article:
“Expose and denounce the claims of evil and disease in all their forms,” she writes, “but realize no reality in them” (p. 447).”

And o'er earth's troubled, angry sea
I see Christ walk,
And come to me, and tenderly,
Divinely talk.

Dwell within this heart of mine;
Bid my troubled thoughts be still;

"Beloved students, loyal laborers are ye that have wrought valiantly, and achieved great guerdons in the vineyard of our Lord; but a mighty victory is yet to be won, a great freedom for the race; and Christian success is under arms,—with armor on, not laid down."

What is Christian Science?
Mary Baker Eddy, who discovered and founded Christian Science, defined it as “the law of God, the law of good . . . ” (Rudimental Divine Science, p. 1). In Christian Science, God is understood to be infinite Love, and so invariably good that a clear glimpse of this through prayer has power to heal, redeem, and restore anyone. Read more
