Have you ever seen an old sunbeam? There's no such thing.
Is there a sick sunbeam? A sad sunbeam? A hurt sunbeam? Not as far as I know.
Can a sunbeam get stuck, be static, not shine? Interfere with or influence another sunbeam?
In fact, as shared at our testimony meeting today, doesn't each beam enhance the other?
I love that the opening "In the beginning..." of the book of Genesis - the first in the Old Testament, though not the first to have been written - is the story of being; of timelessness. In the Chapter Genesis of her book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mrs. Eddy writes that "in the beginning...signif[ies] the only" (p. 502:25).
Light is a wonderful symbol for the timelessness and infinitude of the universe of Spirit, and to glimpse this is surely a sign of progress.
