With full gratitude for what Christian Science means to me as a parent, as well as in all my other activities, I should like to relate an experience demonstrating the life-sustaining qualities available through applying this wonderful Science.

One day while I was out driving, our little girl, then six years old, fell out of the car. I was driving at about twenty-five or thirty miles an hour. Her little friend called to me, and I hastily stopped the car, saying over and over again: "You are now and always have been in God's care. You are His child and live in Him and in harmony." I ran back to where she was lying, unconscious, on the street. I picked her up quickly, thanked kind people who offered assistance, and put her in the back seat of the car. Many angel thoughts came to my assistance as I drove to the home of a friend who lived near by. There I telephoned to a Christian Science practitioner and asked the friend to go back to my home with me. Before taking the child into the house, I went in and spoke to my husband, who is not a Christian Scientist, saying we should have to take a stand for God as we never had before, and then quickly related what had occurred. A Christian Science nurse was summoned and stood faithfully by.
