In the atmosphere of Love

Many Christian Science association meetings are held all over the world once a year. Those who attend have taken a two-week course from a Christian Science teacher on understanding God and our relationship to Him. This class instruction is all about Christian Science healing.

One year, I was flying home from one of these annual meetings and there was a medical emergency on the plane. A woman came down the aisle with the flight attendants. They found a seat for her several rows behind me at the front of the plane. All heads turned to see what was going on. The atmosphere was filled with tension. 

Then came an announcement on the loudspeaker asking if there was a doctor on board. At this point I was feeling the agitation and knew I needed to calm my thought and contribute positively to the atmosphere around me. It took a few minutes, but I remembered what I’d learned from class instruction, and on my association day—to trust God and let Him give us the healing thoughts we need for any situation.
