We have had many healings in our home

Lulu E. Petersen

We have had many healings in our home. One that stands out to me occurred when we were just beginning to study Christian Science; it was a healing of scarlet fever in three days. Having had experience with the same type of error before, I knew what it claimed to be. With the aid of a practitioner all fear was cast out; and there were no aftereffects, no convalescing, and no contagion.

I am grateful that through my reading of the LessonSermons in the Christian Science Quarterly, the Scriptures, which for so long were not understood, are meaning more to me each day.

In Isaiah we read, "In the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes," and Mrs. Eddy says in Science and Health (p. 574), "The very circumstance, which your suffering sense deems wrathful and afflictive, Love can make an angel entertained unawares." How many times we have been burdened with discord or suffering of some kind, and healing has taken place, when to mortal sense the way was still dark! The Scripture continues, "And an highway shall be there, and a way, . . . no lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon."
