This healing happened on a Sunday morning as we were getting ready for church. While I was in another room, my wife put Kyle in his walker. We have a set of stairs in our house with a door at the top. My wife had closed the door so Kyle couldn't get to the stairs, but not realizing that Kyle was in his walker, I went downstairs and left the door open. My immediate response to his fall was one of great concern and guilt.
My wife and I both felt we needed the help of a practitioner. We called one, but she was out. We called a second, who we found was out of town on a lecture tour. A third was also unavailable. But Kyle was somewhat listless, and I felt we must keep trying. So I opened the Journal to the listings for our state, and asked God to direct me. A name came clearly and I called. On the other end of the line was a calm voice that assured me Kyle was always under God's care. This man agreed to continue to pray for us.
As First Reader, I needed to go conduct the services at our church. My wife remained home with Kyle. During church I realized that all the readings from the Bible and Science and Health were taking on a vivid and real meaning. As we said the Lord's Prayer, this also took on a meaning I had not known before. The hymns and the Lesson-Sermon were alive and clear with truth, revealing to me a new inspiration. I could feel something wonderful happening, and I was joyful and unafraid.
