She practiced witchcraft, what she called white magic. Her spells were for good and not intended as a curse, but she believed that evil was also real and powerful. In her personal life she was feeling more and more fearful, unhappy, as if she had no control over what happened to her. That's when she began talking to a Christian Scientist at her university.
The Christian Scientist spoke to her of the power of good: Good is not one of two opposing powers. Good is God, the only power. God is all-powerful divine Love, embracing and protecting each one of us.
At first, the girl still felt helpless, as if she were being dominated by forces beyond her control. Gradually, she began accepting that God exists, is good, and that she could reject fearful and unhappy thoughts on the basis of her relation to God. A complete change took place. She rejected witchcraft as a power for good or evil, regained a sense of dominion and peace, and was able to break free from fear of manipulative influences.
