Testimonies of Healing

Late one night, my two-year-old son fell from bed, catching his arm between the bed frame and mattress. When I reached him, I saw that his wrist was bent at an odd angle.

When my daughter Christine was 15, she went out with her friends one Friday night. I'd planned to watch a movie, but then felt like I needed some quiet time with God instead.

When I was six weeks old , my mother became very ill. A doctor said that there was nothing more he could do and that she would die.

Some years ago , I was somewhat confused about spirituality. I wanted to find God.

One Labor Day , I started to mow the lawn with my old lawnmower. Because the grass was pretty high, I removed the front guard.

In March Of Last Year , I was praying about a vacation I'd planned in Australia. As part of my prayer, I thought deeply about Psalm 139, especially the assurance that "if I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

Some years ago , while showering one morning, I found a tender spot under my arm. A few days later I found a lump there.

A number of times during the past few years, I would start feeling a pain in my side. Sometimes it was minor, and I'd think about what I'd learned about Christian Science healing until the pain left.

The call came shortly after I'd arrived at work. Our youngest son, Brady, had been injured at the school bus stop.

In the 1970s, my husband, two young daughters, and I lived in a 200-year-old log cabin on ten beautiful acres in the foothills of Pickens County, South Carolina. We had a very simple and self-sufficient lifestyle, living off the land and raising our own food, fruits, and vegetables.
