Testimonies of Healing

Pain dissolves after persistent prayer

From the May 2012 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Last year I experienced a sharp pain in the side of my torso. This pain seemed to come out of nowhere. It lasted several minutes at a time and recurred on numerous occasions throughout the day. I felt considerable discomfort and sometimes dizziness during this time. 

I knew I wanted to use what I had been taught in Christian Science to overcome this difficulty. I had experienced many healings before through Christian Science, and I knew I could trust God, divine Mind, to heal me this time as well.

I had been reading Mary Baker Eddy: Christian Healer, Amplified Edition. In reading some of the healings, the thought occurred to me that what I was going through might have been a very small thing to Mrs. Eddy, but it was something really big to me. After four days, the pain wasn’t yielding, so I kept reading to gain inspiration.
