No longer 'stuck,' but healed

A couple of years ago, a growth developed on the top of my head. Looking back, I guess I didn’t pray about it at first because the growth’s development was so gradual that it took a while before it seemed like an actual issue. But over time it grew substantially, and I couldn’t hold off addressing the situation any longer.  

In fact, the growth was in my thought almost constantly. I was troubled about the condition itself, but even more so by the control over my thinking that it had. I wanted nothing more than to be rid of it, and I knew that my thinking was the place to start. 

My first effort in prayer was to get past the material picture that was being constantly presented to me. I established firmly in thought the fact that my true identity is spiritual, not material. I understood that God is Spirit and His creation, which includes me, must therefore be entirely spiritual. I am not a vulnerable chunk of matter subject to random or negative influences. I am a wholly intact spiritual idea of God, and what appeared to be a material growth was actually an unreal perception of my true being.
