Jan. 24, 2023: From the Pen of Dr. Maxine

“We should learn to control our thought processes and bring them into line with Reality. Thought should tend more and more toward an affirmative attitude of mind that is positive, stable, and —- above all else — toward a real unity with Spirit that is already complete and perfect.”  ~ Ernest Holmes, Science of Mind, p. 53

All principles are invisible and personally unusable until we learn about their qualities and practical applications. It is the same for the Principle which we teach and use in Science of Mind, as Dr. Holmes suggests that, “ . . . we are likely to indulge in too much theory and too little practice.” We conclude this month’s focus on the basics of Religious Science with, “Shiny, New Tools,” based on the final introductory Chapter IV of Science of Mind, “How to Use It.” You may wish to review pages 51 to 60 in advance of Sunday, and we will do a deep review of our Affirmative Prayer (Spiritual Mind Treatment) and offer virtual handouts to use at home.

Whether reviewing as a long-time student of truth or learning these creative practices for the first time, everyone is welcome to an informational and inspiring morning online. As we embrace the Presence and practice the Law in real life situations, we prove the Principle that we continue to learn and embody. Whether licensed or not, we are all “practitioners” of this teaching, as we apply it in our personal lives. It is wonderful to be in a beloved spiritual community that supports us in our endeavors.

To tune into our broadcast on Sunday, just go to our website www.cslphilly.org and use the orange “Watch Live” button to connect with us at 10:30 A.M.

With great love and respect,

r. Maxine
