Testimonies of Healing

Not the vacation I'd planned

From the June 2002 issue of The Christian Science Journal


"Fasten Your Seat Belts. We're preparing to land." The voice of the pilot came on as we were approaching the Palm Springs airport. It was a beautiful spring day, and my friend and I were looking forward to our three-week vacation in her lovely condominium in the desert.

But as we were leaving the airplane, my heel caught in a crack and I fell, sustaining multiple cuts and bruises and a big bump on my head along the way. Blood was all over my clothes and shoes. The interesting thing was that I was not afraid for even a moment, because I was instinctively trusting God.

While I was falling, the word intact came to my thought. I had done some research on that word a few days before the trip. One of its dictionary definitions is, "Untouched by anything that harms or diminishes." As I lay there, my friend leaned over to me and said, "God is your Life." I appreciated her reassurance.
