As I began my study of the Christian Science weekly bible lesson, "Sacrament," I dug into the Responsive Reading and found this offering:
Colossians 3:16
The Message (MSG)
"15-17 Let the peace of Christ keep you in tune with each other, in step with each other. None of this going off and doing your own thing. And cultivate thankfulness. Let the Word of Christ—the Message—have the run of the house. Give it plenty of room in your lives. Instruct and direct one another using good common sense. And sing, sing your hearts out to God! Let every detail in your lives—words, actions, whatever—be done in the name of the Master, Jesus, thanking God the Father every step of the way."
Letting the Christ, have the run of the house is liberating and will eliminate criticism, judging, hatred, self-will, arrogance and pride, lust, and any other evil beliefs that wish to influence, direct, counsel or mandate.
Declare with the humility of the Christ, I am God’s perfect child and I am not the material man that wishes to persuade, influence, direct, intimidate or manipulate me into it’s own bidding. God is my true Father/Mother and my creator and the Scriptures declare this truth as the fact of my true spiritual being.
I am reflecting God in his universe , right here and right now; His handiwork, good, pure, abundant, embodies me, mine and all. God’s care and ever presence, protection, and care in every way is here with me, at all times and under all circumstances.
