It is a great privilege to bear...
It is a great privilege to bear witness to the healing truth of Christian Science. I was at work in my office one morning when my knee became very painful. I did not take much notice of it at first, but the pain became so intense that it was almost unbearable. The knee was swollen and inflamed, and I became fearful. Mortal mind suggested that if only I was at home instead of at business how much easier it would be. Then I realized that no matter where I might be, I could know that the condition was not physical, but mental, and that it was my thinking which needed to be corrected. I managed with great difficulty to reach the telephone and call my sister.
She said: "Have no fear. Remember what the Master said: Nothing shall by any means hurt you'" (Luke 10:19). She added: "How much power has the Word of God? All the power there is. You are actually spiritual and perfect now."
I do not remember walking back to my office, I felt so uplifted, and I said aloud: "Of course, I am all right now. God's child never needs any healing, for he reflects and expresses nothing but good." Divine Love flooded my consciousness, and in that revelation the aggressive suggestion of evil fell away. The erroneous condition vanished from thought and therefore from my experience, and I was entirely free. The knee was restored whole as the other.
