In late July of 2019, my wife and I were returning from a week of canoeing in the Boundary Waters of Minnesota. We were at the airport in Salt Lake City to make a connecting flight to Boise, Idaho, for a family reunion, when a sense of disorientation seemed to come over me. I wasn’t able to remember words and couldn’t speak in complete sentences.
My wife called a Christian Science practitioner right away. It seemed wise to change our plans and fly back home to Fort Worth, Texas.
I pray often with the Lord’s Prayer, including its spiritual interpretation as given by Mary Baker Eddy in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. This spiritual sense of the Lord’s Prayer has greatly strengthened my understanding of it, and is what makes the prayer so powerful to me.
