Heart trouble gone

From the May 2018 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Several years ago, I began experiencing signs of heart trouble. Since I’d grown up with Christian Science and had continued studying it as an adult, I was familiar with the idea that God is Life and that man is the spiritual expression of Life. 

At the same time, I felt responsible for bringing this problem upon myself by not maintaining a regular sleep and meal schedule. Though I was praying about this issue, alarming symptoms of heart malfunction appeared with increasing severity and regularity. Sometimes I had difficulty sleeping because of discomfort and the fear that I wouldn’t wake up. 

I found myself building a case on the side of disaster. When my mother was a teenager, my grandfather passed away when his heart stopped, and I was afraid of dying prematurely too.
