Day 197: Good Health & Justice

389:13-391:6

In this reading, Mary Baker Eddy says to argue against sickness and deny it’s legitimacy as you would sin:

Let your higher sense of justice destroy the false process of mortal opinions which you name law…

I like the idea of a higher sense of justice as part of spiritual growth. She goes on to give some specific steps:

Dismiss it with an abiding conviction that it is illegitimate, because you know that God is no more the author of sickness than He is of sin.

And:

Rise in the conscious strength of the spirit of Truth to overthrow the plea of mortal mind, alias matter, arrayed against the supremacy of Spirit.
