Testimonies of Healing

My husband planned to attend a high school reunion out of state with numerous events scheduled over a handful of days. A few days before, I decided to accompany him and help with the long drive.

This author thought that maybe with time, she would be healed. When she shifted her thinking to a more spiritual view of herself, she was healed.

I was twelve years old sitting in a Christian Science Sunday School when I realized that God was infinite, divine Love who created us in His image and likeness, and not some superhero up in the clouds randomly deciding how to interact with His children. Once I had that awakening, I looked at human life differently.

It is now time for me to share a physical healing and a healing related to church that occurred many years ago. I had just returned from a wonderful, long overseas trip.

I was introduced to Christian Science by a coworker many years ago. In the forty years since I first learned of Christian Science, I have experienced firsthand its healing effect.

Several years ago my husband and I were traveling and I became ill with a severe respiratory condition. I prayed, simply affirming what I have learned in my study of Christian Science—that God, good, is all, and there is nothing besides Him.

Nearing the end of my second pregnancy, the kind family doctor informed me that our baby boy was in a breech position. He knew I was a Christian Scientist and asked me to pray about it.

Last year, one of my knees began to hurt when I walked. There did not seem to be a reason for the discomfort, which came and went.

About twenty years ago I had an itchy rash on my body. I kept the affected areas covered with bandages to keep from scratching, and I was able to continue my teaching and other daily work.

When I was about seventeen, I began suffering from severe earaches. After waking one morning, I felt a stabbing pain in my right ear.
