Healing of swollen wrist

Charlene Anne Miller

In 2003, one of my wrists felt alarmingly weak and looked swollen when I awoke one morning. The temptation to seek a material cause or a name for the condition was firmly rebuked. I immediately began to reason and pray in a Christianly scientific manner, focusing my thought on how God, divine Mind, was seeing me.

Through the study and practice of Christian Science, I have experienced many physical healings. In this instance, I affirmed God’s allness. I declared my oneness with God as His spiritual reflection. I knew the impossibility of any pain or disability in His likeness.

As I prayed, I was led to these statements on Christian Science treatment from the textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy: “Suffer no claim of sin or of sickness to grow upon the thought. Dismiss it with an abiding conviction that it is illegitimate, because you know that God is no more the author of sickness than He is of sin. You have no law of His to support the necessity either of sin or sickness, but you have divine authority for denying that necessity and healing the sick” (p. 390).
