Just thinking this morning about something that may seem a sweeping statement to those who are not followers of our great Master, but is true nonetheless. And this is that the teachings of Christ Jesus are the solution to every difficulty mankind faces. "Not so", would say the unbelieving, the worldly, those who put their trust in politicians or corporations or intelligent scientists to come up with the answer.
Take the BP situation in the Gulf: I've read they have the best minds in the world on this case and look at where we are. This is not to disparage the human efforts being made, which have to be made. And man, under the inspiration and guidance of the One Mind, God can do what needs to be done. But Jesus we are told by Mary Baker Eddy claimed no intelligence apart from God. And we will have to learn to do likewise if we are to cope with problems in this life. God gave His Son the words that we are to live by. And if we're to avert unnecessary suffering, and find solutions when things go awry, then the only way out in through these sublime teachings which turn us to God as the infinite power that He is.
