Testimonies of Healing
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.
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.
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 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.
“ God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind” ( II Timothy 1:7 ). This beautiful biblical passage became a living reality in my experience.
One afternoon in the middle of our son’s fourth-grade year in elementary school, I got a call from the nurse’s office to pick him up. He was feeling nauseous and his head hurt.
About a year ago , I noticed that an area in my abdomen was occasionally painful. I started praying to strengthen my conviction that only the qualities of God can develop within me.
I woke up one morning and thought, “Today’s the day we move home!” But I wasn’t happy like I should have been. I was sad.
