LENT

 

Romans 12:21 ~ “Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”

Many religions of the world are now celebrating the Lenten Season. During this Season people fast by denying themselves something they really enjoy, such as candy, ice cream, or perhaps attending a weekly movie or something else that gives them pleasure. In Divine Science, we fast from old worn-out ideas and beliefs that are no longer benefiting our lives; and make room for Divine ideas, filled with opportunities. Someone suggested that we think of the letters in the word Lent as “Loosening every negative thought.” 

When we refrain from negative error thoughts by speaking the Truth, we “overcome evil with good.” We deny false beliefs about the body by affirming the Truth of it. Truth is the remedy for all disease.

As we journey through the Lenten Season, let us:

    • Cease thinking revenge, cruelty and disease;

    • Think mercy, harmony and justice.

    • Refrain from judging according to appearances;

    • Judge according to the nature of Spirit.

Affirmation: “My body is the temple of God and responds when Truth is spoken of it.”
