Natural Attraction to God

In our hurried world and busy days, we often find ourselves searching for more peace, love, and direction. That yearning is not accidental. It reflects a God-given desire for something higher than ourselves. The attraction we feel toward spiritual truths, toward the Bible, and ultimately toward God, is evidence of His loving invitation to draw closer to Him.

Come… And let he that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. (Proverbs 24:14)

And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. (John 12:32)

There is but one real attraction, that of Spirit. 

Yes, the desire which goes forth hungering after righteousness is blessed of our Father, and does not return unto us void.
(Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy, pgs. 102 and 2)

Join us this Wednesday, November 11, for our Testimony Meeting. You will hear readings from the Bible, as well as passages from the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy.  There will also be time for everyone to share healings and inspiration, and quiet time as well. 

Our meeting is held in person at Brookdale of Glen Ellyn, at 7:30 pm. You can also join us by Zoom. The community is invited and we would be delighted to have you join us.
