My premonition was a call for healing prayer

Have you ever had a premonition of danger? I have! And I found that prayer can change the outcome so that the threatened event doesn’t occur.

A number of years ago, my husband and I, along with another couple, were vacationing in Canada. While at dinner one Sunday evening, I was overwhelmed suddenly with a forewarning of death concerning my dearly loved grandson, Christian. Soon we finished dinner and returned to our motel. Even though I tried to shake the feeling of impending danger, I couldn’t sleep.

About 2 am, I got out of bed and studied the Bible Lesson, taken from the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. The subject was “Soul and Body,” and as I read in the early morning quiet, a shift began taking place in my thought. I recognized clearly that my grandson is always under God’s protection—known by God, loved by God, cherished by God eternally.
