Testimonies of Healing
It was the Wednesday before Christmas several years ago. Running to catch the train home after work, I stepped off a curb wrong and twisted my ankle.
Last year as my adult son was about to go out to work, he said he couldn’t find something he needed. We were living together at the time and I offered to help look for it.
Motherhood is proving to be an incredible time for me to learn more about our Father-Mother God and how She cares for me and for all of us. I’ve practiced Christian Science my whole life, and it’s been natural to rely on God for my own health.
For several years, I struggled with internal pain that was debilitating at times. I curtailed or gave up activities like cycling, hiking, or traveling because sitting or standing for long periods was difficult to do comfortably.
It’s incredibly reassuring to know that we are one with God, as taught and proved by Christ Jesus. Divinely loving, comforting thoughts of good from the one divine Mind naturally permeate our consciousness, even when we’re not fully awake to that oneness.
In the fall of 2022 , I attended an event that took place on a beach. When a friend arrived whom I hadn’t seen in a few years, we embraced with a big hug.
Several years ago, I woke up one morning with excruciating pain around my hip area. Within minutes, I was completely paralyzed from the waist down.
In my early forties , I became pregnant with my third child. The pregnancy was joyous news.
After I experienced heavy bleeding following a positive pregnancy test, I made an appointment with a doctor to determine if I was still pregnant, as I thought I might have miscarried. I learned I was no longer pregnant, and the doctor, a fertility specialist, said I never would be again unless I put myself wholly under his care.
In 2016 my husband and I traveled to New Zealand for a series of work-related events and completed a four-city tour. On the closing night of the work events, a celebratory dinner was planned for all the participants and their family and friends.
