Several years ago, while our elder daughter was practicing a dance she was learning at school, she fell, and we heard a loud snap in one of her feet. She was unable to put any weight on the foot and expressed the fear that a bone was broken. I asked her whether she wanted to have medical care or to rely on God's power alone. She unhesitatingly said, "I want Christian Science." We prayed to realize the present perfection of the true man, God's expression, and thought about these words from Hymn No. 12 in the Christian Science Hymnal:
O Father-Mother God, whose plan
Hath given dominion unto man,
In Thine own image we may see
Man pure and upright, whole and free.
Within eight days she was about her normal daily routine, walking with freedom.
