I've Learned through my study of the Science of Christianity over the years that my nature is actually spiritual, not material. Because I've always believed that we're essentially spiritual beings, made in the likeness of universal intelligence, I understood that in the true, or real, sense of being, there can be no pain—that it's actually illusory or hypnotic.
This understanding came into play about a year ago, when I woke up one morning with pain in my lower abdomen. The pain wasn't severe. But it made walking, bending, and lifting uncomfortable.
I'm used to relying on spiritual means for healing, so I mentally stuck with my understanding of myself as spiritual in nature.
