It is encouraging to see the power of prayer working in our lives. On Wednesday evenings in Churches of Christ, Scientist, throughout the world, students of Christian Science have the opportunity to bear witness to the power of prayer through giving testimonies of healing.
If you would like to participate in the Wednesday evening testimony meetings but have felt reluctant to stand up and testify, I can certainly sympathize.
I well remember giving my first testimony. My young daughter had taken a bad spill on a Wednesday afternoon. We were visiting relatives, and when we returned to the house much alarm was voiced over the child's condition. I took her aside to pray and began to acknowledge her perfection as a child of God, made in His image and likeness, entirely spiritual. I refused to acknowledge that any accident could take place in God's kingdom, as all reality is under His divine control. Within a few hours the healing was apparent to all in the house. I was filled with an overwhelming sense of gratitude and love for God as Father-Mother. God had answered my prayer so completely.
