Testimonies of Healing
I used to drive about an hour each way to my place of work. I would usually spend the beginning of this time thinking prayerfully in preparation for the day, sometimes addressing something specific in my own thought, or issues going on in the world that I felt needed prayerful attention.
After church one Sunday, my husband was playing with our daughter, who was about two at the time. At one point he was swinging her around, and when he brought her down to the ground, her foot hit the cement very hard.
As the author discovers that the real substance of her life is Spirit, God—fearful thoughts dissipate, and she experiences healing.
After I found Christian Science, I experienced many blessings, including healings of high blood pressure, job issues, a lump in my breast, chronic headaches, and seasonal ailments. I want to share an instantaneous healing of a knee injury.
I started my journey in Christian Science when I retired from the Army in 2004. I joined The Mother Church and our branch church and attended class instruction.
Early in my career, I worked in a small factory in a midsize town. During the middle of winter, many people in the factory began excitedly talking about flu season, and, predictably, that illness seemed to aggressively manifest itself.
A couple of times a week I go curling; it’s a sport where a forty-pound stone is pushed down the ice toward a target. One day about a year ago, I was standing on the ice waiting for my turn when my feet suddenly came out from under me, and my fall was broken when my head hit the ice.
After taking up the study of Christian Science in my early twenties, I learned it is vitally important to pray daily for myself and my family. I do this early in the morning, and I listen for God’s guidance while I’m taking a walk or driving.
I had grown up as a student of Christian Science, but had drifted away and stopped practicing it for about forty years. Then I had a mammogram that indicated a small lump.
In the spring of 2018, as I was leaving my house carrying large bags in either hand, I tripped on a ridge by the curb and fell. My forehead hit the pavement, as I wasn’t able to stop the fall with my hands.
