My heart is overflowing with gratitude for the power and the ever-present availability of the Christ, Truth, given to us in Christian Science by our revered Leader. Our family has had many proofs of its healing power.
Our two-year-old was pushing her doll buggy on the sidewalk from one driveway to the other, when our neighbor backed out without seeing her and ran the car over her chest and head.
My husband, being not firmly grounded in the teachings of Christian Science, was terribly afraid and insisted that the child be taken to the hospital. I called a practitioner for help for myself, and it was brought out to me that love was the only thing needed here because Love is Life. I was assured that my help was ever present, that no matter where the child was, God was her Life and she could never be separated from God, her Father-Mother, for even one instant. This quieted my fear so that I could let her be taken to the hospital with no fear of the outcome.
