Thank God for God! Lesson for August 7, 1949
1 ' sVf1
.WHILE the little children are thanking God for birds and Ibees and oatmeal, let us grown people rise' and offer some adult
,thanksgiv ings. heading the Psalms of praise which are this week before us, we get the impres- " ;sion that these poets were grateful - labove all not for
anything God had given but for God 'himself. Thank God
for God! sings Dr. Foreman through every line. ! Suppose there were no God? He is the Creator of all; without him I jnothlng else can be. The nature of I time and space, of molecule and' latora and electron, the mighty power that holds all together; the 'emergence of life, of mind, the ! possibility of thought, of values, (whatever is and whatever can be, lis because he wills it so. That jthere is energy in the atom, light iin the sun, refreshment in the rain and power in the lightning that these things can be and that any- ! thing can be, we thank the God. No Unrighteousness in Him 4 iOUPPOSE God were not good? A vast and vicious devil, his immense mind brimming with intelligence and malice, could perhaps I have contrived a universe more enormous than this corner of one ! which is known to us. A creative 'devil what jpangs he could have, jinvented to torture his creatures!1 It may be, indeed, that only on this earth is there rebellion against the Creator, and that elsewhere in God's dominions all is peace. But suppose it were true that all the evil in the , world was ordained by soma Creative Hatred? all the goodness in the world only an il- . lusion, a deception? '..Suppose it were the Intent of , some devilish maker of man fin
ally to destroy all his creatures, or
worse still, to make every creature
long bitterly for death but find none? lt nsth&HkGod for God: the God of mercy whose loving kindness endureth forever. He Knoweth Our Frame LET us thank God for his providence. He did not create and then forget us, nor give us so much freedom that we could destroy his imajesty or bring to naught his mighty plan. Let us thank God for his infinite love and interest that spares and speeds us, his knowledge of our frame, his remembering even the hairs upon our heads. Let us thank God that being infinite he can have a care for the infinitesimal, and that not a sparrow falls to the ground without our heavenly Father. Let us thank God whose care for us is such that without his knowledge not the least of his creatures can fall asleep. From death and disaster we and the nation and the world have been saved, time and again. Frail is the craft in which the human spirit is launched throuch this nathless
universe; yet it holds, and will hold, because the universe is there by his almighty decree. In spite of the chaos of men's unruly wills, in spite of we know not what rebellions in the spirit world, he sees to it that not one good is ever wholly lost.

Lesson-Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, August j 'The Golden Text is: "0 Lord, thou hast searched me, and known I me Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?" (Psalms 139:1,7). I Among the citations which comprise the Lesson-Sermon is the following from the Bible: "And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward: Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but oftr sufficiency is of God; Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life" (II Corinthians 3:4-6). The Lesson-Sermon also includes the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy: "Jesus demonstrated the inability of corporeality, as well as the infinite ability of Spirit, thus helping erring human sense to flee from its own convictions and seek safety in divine Science" (p. 494). "Correct material belief by spiritual understanding, and Spirit will form you anew" (p. 425).

There were some things He wanted and He needed money to buy them. What's wrong with that? Nothing wrong with that.' We all want many things that cost money. But most of us learned long ago the difference between earning and stealing. . .this boy hasn't! Oh, he may understand that difference in terms of method. But he doesn't understand it in terms of moral principle. And even a prison sentence will probably not teach him the truth he could have learned as a child in the Church. Wise parents, begin immediately to give your chjldren the priceless gift of religious training in the Church! '
