Testimonies of Healing

Flu symptoms gone

From the August 2024 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Several years ago, after I’d returned home from my annual Christian Science students’ association meeting, I became very ill with flu symptoms. I wondered how this could happen, especially after a meeting that was filled with powerful and inspiring messages about God’s goodness.

I decided to get metaphysical help from a Christian Science practitioner. I told the practitioner that I was very disappointed because I thought that so many past healings I had experienced through Christian Science should have prevented me from having this physical challenge.

Rather than focusing on the past, the practitioner told me that each day and each moment are new, and we can’t rely only on our past healings or earlier inspiration to meet today’s problems. The Bible says that “the inward man is renewed day by day” (II Corinthians 4:16). We need to freshly cultivate and nourish inspiration every day. In doing this, we can find healing moment by moment.
