Matthew W. Potts

Several years ago I was involved in an automobile collision, and my car was hurled into a telephone pole. At the moment of impact I had a clear sense of the allness of God. Then human consciousness left me. When I awakened, I found I had been covered with blankets, and I was told that I must not move, that I was badly injured, and that a doctor and an ambulance had been sent for.

Instantly I declared audibly "the scientific statement of being," as given on page 468 of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, and again audibly affirmed the allness of God. While doing this, I moved my body: the right shoulder bones went back into place, and the bones of my right leg snapped into place so that I was able to move without pain.

When I tried to take a deep breath, however, there was indication of pressure from the ribs against my right lung. Again I made some statements of truth, and the pressure was relieved so that deep breathing was again possible. Feeling the need of additional mental support, I asked if there was a Christian Scientist present. Instantly a man stooped down and said, "My wife is a registered practitioner, and we live only two doors up the street."
