Although I'm a senior citizen, I was surprised to find myself incontinent. I was too embarrassed to tell a Christian Science practitioner and ask for treatment, so this condition went on for a couple of years. Then one day in trying to pray about the problem myself, I became very discouraged and terribly upset. This quotation from the Bible came to me: "If I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there" (Ps. 139:8). This meant to me that no matter how bad things were, God and His love were still with me. It gave me comfort, even though I didn't realize at the time that this was my healing. The demonstration was actually immediate.
I also suffered from severe arthritis. However, I did not call a practitioner for help. I had recently witnessed the healing of a serious condition of arthritis of someone I know who had prayed for herself. I felt it couldn't be that difficult, so why couldn't I do it myself by understanding God's allness and consequently the nothingness of the claim? I recognized that all there is of me or anybody or anything is in and of Spirit, since God is All; and I saw that there could not be a disease in Spirit. This healed me.
