On September 13, 2005, I had been studying Christian Science for about eight months. During that time, I had been healed of many addictions (alcohol, cigarettes, marijuana), and my life was on the rise. Yet, on this particular day, it seemed as if my past was catching up with me.
I was due in court on Friday for a “driving under the influence” (DUI) arrest, which had occurred before my “resurrection” through Christian Science. I was to give new evidence for an appeal because my attorney believed the arrest had not been carried out properly and that maybe he could cut a deal for me.
Looking at it in the new light Christian Science was shedding on my life, I wasn’t fearful of the outcome, but was encompassed by fear that the appeal was not in accord with God’s will for me.
