There is only Good

​We know you get more of what you focus on.​ Imagine focusing a microscope onto an atom or a cell, as you magnify closer the cell takes up the whole lens and everything around it goes out of vision.​ When you focus on the good, and fill your consciousness with it, the negative, the bad, and any error go out of vision and disappear.​

As our Year 12s complete their final exams I reflected on the Year 12 Valedictory Dinner. As I looked around, all I could see were joyous, gracious, intelligent and beautiful students, joined by their grateful parents or families. The night was filled with a coming together of humility, humour, gratitude and joy. I heard no talk of anxiousness, covid, isolation or even a gripe about the food. What a wonderful occasion!

In Christian Science, God and good are synonymous and universal. Knowing this we can consciously fill our minds with good. Soon all you see is good.

​

From Genesis: "And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good."​

From Psalms: "I believe that I will see the goodness of the LORD in this world of the living."​

And from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy​:

"All that God imparts moves in accord with Him, reflecting goodness and power."​

​

"At all times and under all circumstances, overcome evil with good. Know thyself, and God will supply the wisdom and the occasion for a victory over evil. Clad in the panoply of Love, human hatred cannot reach you."​
