In an incredulous world it is sometimes hard for one whose life has been impressed with the belief that man is material to assent to spiritual healing methods. One member of a family may be highly trustful of God's unlimited power and choose to rely on His complete and flawless authority, as taught in Christian Science. On the other hand, a close kin, materially indoctrinated, may be fearful of absolute reliance on God, and may mentally or verbally pull on the other to accept medical attention. His thoughts may be so skeptical of the divine method that they seem to hamper the healing.
The most rapid healing takes place when the sick one with deep faith has no fragment of doubt as to God's power. Those close at hand can prosper the healing by developing the sincere, unpretended faith in God's ability to awaken thought to health's ever-presence hinted at in Genesis, where we read, "Is any thing too hard for the Lord?"Gen. 18:14;
God's all-power is equal to every emergency, and this is proved more or less promptly according to the sincerity of the individual and of the family's trust in God, and of the correct application of the Biblical rules of healing as revealed in Christian Science.
