Testimonies of Healing

Not subject to decay

From the April 2006 issue of The Christian Science Journal


WHILE PREPARING TO LEAVE for a two-day business trip to a very rural part of Oregon, I began to experience pain in one of my molars. Although annoying, the pain was tolerable, and I attempted to just work through it.

However, once I arrived at my destination, I found that the discomfort in my tooth made it very awkward for me to eat. I considered inquiring about a dentist in the area, but having traveled hundreds of miles and at great expense for this trip, I felt I had too much work to do.

Instead, I turned my thoughts to prayer, as this is the way I'm accustomed to dealing with difficulties. I focused on some simple spiritual truths that I've learned through Christian Science—truths about my inherent perfection and wholeness as a child of God. Then I committed to completing the work I had scheduled for that day.
