“Not necessarily easy,” thank you, I needed to know that today!
And also, thank you for your thought provoking audio chat “Exercising discipline and self-government” so very helpful !! http://sentinel.christianscience.com
Yes, thanks for the chat. I appreciated how the response was almost always to start with a better understanding of who we are and all those wonderful abilities we have, due to our origin in God.
I rarely if ever have found value in things that came “easy”.
Perhaps this is why Mrs. Eddy includes the cross with the crown as the two were inseparable in her life as seen in the following quote . . .
“In the storm of misunderstandings and criticism, in the stress of ingratitude and betrayal; constantly tried as by fire; at times, all but overwhelmed by the waters of malice, envy, and hate; beset by poverty, homelessness, and loneliness, this women pressed on. Healing cases her students failed to heal, pondering and communing with her heavenly Father, she meekly broke the bread of Truth with her fellow men. In the face of opposition greater than the world had known since the advent of Christianity, she would not be swayed from her God-appointed task. In the secret recesses of her heart Mary Baker Eddy guarded the truth God had revealed to her.”
(Twelve years with Mary Baker Eddy – Rev. Irving Tomlinson, page 42)
Truth, Wisdom, Love and Sincerity, to ALL Mankind.
Faith is wonderful and needs to be nurtured . We need to plant the seeds of faith and let it grow daily in our daily life. Faith supports us and will deliver us.

We have to work at this daily, and a good time is when we refresh our daily BibleLessons.
Evan,
Thank you for this message on faith.
