It was gone!

One day at school, I was writing, and I felt something on my hand. It was a hard bump. I looked at it and thought, “It will go away quickly.”

Later that week, I looked at my hand, and the bump wasn’t going away. When my little brother held my hand, he quickly let go because he didn’t like feeling the wart. It made me feel embarrassed and sad. 

A few weeks before summer camp, I thought it would be a good idea to pray about the bump. My mom and I discussed this idea from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures: “A spiritual idea has not a single element of error, and this truth removes properly whatever is offensive” (Mary Baker Eddy, p. 463). I thought of myself as that spiritual idea, and so I knew I could not have any element of anything bad or any spot of error.
