Mrs. Eddy once said this very thing to Laura Sargent who wrote it down as follows: “Mother said in the old way mortal belief had one devil; now it had many, but we must not call it they, but evil. She said when we take up our watch, we do not help her with our thought; we simply clear our own thought of the belief of evil, and this is getting rid of our thought and getting out of God’s way so the light can shine through, and this blessed light helps us and all in its shining. This is the blessed, blessed way from sense to Soul.” Mary Baker Eddy (Carpenter, Jr., Gilbert, 500 Watching Points, #206)
