Some years ago I found myself in a most confused and bewildered state of mind, which culminated in a nervous breakdown.
I spent many weeks at the Christian Science Benevolent Association Sanatorium at Chestnut Hill. God's love and care were manifested to me in numerous ways. A friend came to see me and brought enough money to pay all my expenses while there. Each day I awakened with a sense of joy, and no matter how difficult things were, I never had to stay in bed a day. Each time I needed help I received it, and the pain lifted until it soon left, never to return.
As soon as I possibly could, I worked again because I needed to, although I was not fully recovered. I was able to work quite a few years without missing a day. When later my strength failed and I had to stop work, a practitioner to whom I went for help explained to me that I had in reality been given dominion by God, and that consciousness of that dominion would grow and increase as I exercised it. As I began to realize this fact, I found I needed less rest and could walk greater distances without tiring. I was also helped to see that I always had strength enough to do something each day for someone else less able than I. This I did, and often more than once a day.
