I am very happy to be a Christian Scientist—to be class taught and a branch church member. Christian Science has helped me immeasurably in school and at work. To solve problems of different sorts, descriptions for man and Mind from the Glossary of Science and Health have been particularly helpful for me (see p. 591). What a blessing it is to have all of Mrs. Eddy's writings available to study and put into practice.

A couple of years ago I had a marvelous healing. I was on vacation in France with my mom and a sister. This was to be followed by an extended two-month stay on my own. While touring with my family, I hurt my foot. I returned to the car to pray, and I knew my mom would be praying for me as she finished the tour. I was especially concerned because I was the only one who could drive a stick shift car, and also because of the fear that I would not be able to walk properly in the months ahead. When my family returned, my sister did just fine in operating the car for us.

Upon reaching our apartment, I called a practitioner back home and told her about my foot, which by this time was swollen and couldn't bear any weight. Her response was comforting, and she reminded me I could never leave God's care. She said she would pray for me.
