Testimonies of Healing

Child healed through prayer

From the December 2000 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I want to share my gratitude for the beautiful healing of our daughter. When she became ill, one of the first things I had to eradicate was the fear of responsibility, as my Mum and Dad (to whom I often turn for help in prayer) were going to be away. I focused my prayer on the truth that God is both my and my daughter's Father-Mother, and on His presence with us.

My husband and I have an agreement that if our children are faced with an illness or injury that isn't quickly healed through prayer, they will be taken to a doctor. When my husband requested medical attention, I was calm.

The threat of possible meningitis, however, filled me with fear. The doctor said they would not do anything until the symptoms worsened, and that the test they had to do was dangerous.
