Our son passed on almost four years ago from a serious illness after months of medical treatment that included two operations. One night, a short time after his passing, I was alone and thinking about him and what he had gone through. I was crying, sobbing uncontrollably, and at the same time I kept hearing his voice, clear and strong, calling for me to "wake up and listen." He was telling me, "Mom, Mom, there is no death." By then I was wide awake. The dream vanished, but not the assurance what I heard was a clear message from God. That was the absolute end to my fear and grief.
Knowing that Life is God is my testimony.
My gratitude for the teachings of Christian Science is untold. Life is eternal; our son has gone on and is continuing to see that life, intelligence, and substance are not in matter. To me, now, this is a very clear and understandable statement of fact. Knowing that Life is God, without beginning or ending, eternal—that it always was and always will be the only life of everyone, everywhere, throughout all time—is my testimony.
