The breadth and certainty of God’s healing power is recorded in the Bible, spanning several thousand years of human history. This continuous ribbon of healings includes cures of infertility, accidents, illness, blindness, deformity, and death, to name a few.

“There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so” (Shakespeare). I first read this quote on an opening page of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science.

Breaking up with someone who has been important to you can bring a sense of loss, grief, hurt, and sometimes anger. But these feelings are not inevitable.

Christ Jesus put on record the healing power of God, divine Truth, for the world’s benefit. He did this by teaching and demonstrating the power of Truth, freeing humanity from limitations, discords, and diseases.

Are we checking the body for confirmation of healing?

The Bible often mentions compassion, many times in reference to Christ Jesus. It’s clear that the Master radiated this quality as he went about his daily work of teaching and healing.

At the end of 1894 , Mary Baker Eddy made a radical and unique decision about the church she had founded. She established that two books, the Bible and her Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, would serve as the church’s pastor, and that Bible Lessons drawn solely from these two books would constitute its sermons.

Before healing two men of blindness, Jesus asked them: “Believe ye that I am able to do this?” They answered affirmatively: “Yea, Lord” (see Matthew 9:28 ).   Spiritual insight into these two words “Yea” and “Lord” has strengthened my practice of Christian Science healing.

The fourth chapter of the Gospel of John reports that Christ Jesus once spoke with a woman who had come to a well to draw water. Jesus explained to her that he could offer her “living water” that would permanently quench any thirst.

Some time ago I started making a concerted effort to thank God for every small evidence of His care. I used to think those little events were insignificant, and only the big healings warranted recognition.
