Testimonies of Healing

Finger injured in saw blade—healed

From the July 2012 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Christian Science has always been my only guide to joyous living and healing. It has never failed to obliterate troubles and restore harmony when I have applied its teachings. Through practicing Christian Science, I’ve experienced instantaneous healings of accidents, sickness, grief, self-doubt, and fear. I’ve also had several healings involving physical reconstruction through spiritually mental surgery.

At one time I owned and operated a small construction company. I was working in the shop one day with two employees, sawing red oak planks into strips—for gluing together to make raised-panel kitchen cabinet doors. I was running the wood through a table saw when one of the employees pulled a small compressor hose on the floor at my feet. I allowed myself to be distracted by this and ran the index finger of my right hand into the blade.

Instantly, with my left hand I gripped the finger, never looking at it, since I wanted to prevent forming an image of accident or injury in thought.
