During the years after my first healing in Christian Science, many blessings have come to me. Through the understanding that God is Love, ever present, and omnipotent, which I have gained through my study of this Science, I have changed my outlook on life from one of deep pessimism and fear to one of security.

In Christian Science we do not avoid problems; but by putting into practice what we understand, we learn to face problems and finally to solve them. There have been many problems and trials in my experience, but the understanding of spiritual reality and of man's spiritual nature as God's image and likeness has been an immeasurable help in bringing about healings without material aid.

One day while I was working at a washing machine, my hand was caught in the electric wringer. It took a few minutes for a friend to open the wringer and free my hand. During this time I had to work to realize the unreality of pain and to know that man is always conscious of omnipotence.
