After struggling for most of her childhood with various illnesses, this author intuitively felt there had to be answers out there. And she was right: God led her right to them through the gift of Christian Science.
In Christian Science we learn to work out our own salvation—which includes praying daily for ourselves—and how to lean on God, not on a person, for healing.
Christian Science teaches that God’s goodness is abundant—in fact, unlimited—and that we are all the recipients of His goodness because we are His children.
What is needed is not the sacrifice of material things but a change of perspective—a new view of creation, of the actual substance of the universe, as wholly spiritual.
This author had just started studying Christian Science when he took a canoe trip with his father that solidified his understanding that God’s guidance really is ever-present and powerful.
Yearning to be yourself but scared to be yourself because of what other people might think? This author felt the same way until she asked God to show her who she really is.
