Many years ago my mother told me that Christian Science was to be demonstrated daily and was not to be put on like a pretty dress for Sunday School. That was one of the sayings her father gave her, and for three generations Christian Science has been daily bread, physician, and guide in our family.
When I was a little girl, I saw an arm, broken below the elbow, straightened and back in active use within a few minutes. I have seen the angry lines of blood poisoning stopped instantly and vanish before my eyes within fifteen minutes. My own foot was so badly sprained that the weight of a sheet was unbearable. It was completely healed two days later, so that I was able to dance all evening without any discomfort.
On one occasion our little girl came to me with red, feverish face and dull, unhappy eyes, almost weeping that her throat hurt so badly. Her own clear acceptance of God's omnipresence expressed in her words, "There isn't a spot where God is not," brought her quick release. With these words every evidence immediately disappeared, and she turned away and ran back to play, completely free. Her pure thought brought the healing.
