The reward of gratitude—God's omnipotence...

From the June 1976 issue of The Christian Science Journal


A grateful heart a fortress is,
A staunch and rugged tower,
Where God's omnipotence, revealed,
Girds man with mighty power.
(Christian Science Hymnal, No. 3.)

The reward of gratitude—God's omnipotence revealed—has been mine many times, and I am daily thankful.

As a child reared by a mother who was a staunch student of Christian Science, I always found my needs were quickly met. Sometimes I would be asked if I would like to have a Christian Science practitioner called. With my assent, treatment was given. My fears would vanish, and healings were always prompt. One instance was when I was sent home on a Friday by the school nurse, who said that I had the measles. A practitioner was engaged, and by Monday morning I was completely healed.
