RADIO PROGRAM No. 257 - Entertaining God's Thoughts Brings Protection

Speaker: It's a wonderful feeling to know that divine protection and help are available at all times. The Bible says, "He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways." Our guest found freedom from fear and gained security and safety through reliance on God, and we've asked him to tell us about it.

Let me introduce Lester Kohnfelder, of Oakland, California. I know you're going to tell us some of the experiences you had when you were a shipyard worker, but couldn't we go back a little further? I think our listeners would be interested in your healing of that ankle injury.

Mr. Kohnfelder: When I was just a young fellow, I was healed of an injured ankle entirely through reliance on God's power. The injury happened while I was at work, and my employer insisted on a medical examination. So X rays were taken. The doctor said all the ligaments were torn loose. The condition was described to me as worse than a broken ankle, and I was told the ankle would always be weak. But as a result of Christian Science help, the ankle was healed within two days, and just a week after the accident I was able to play tennis. In fact, I've played tennis ever since, and the ankle is strong and normal in every way.
