Lila Jean Friesen

Not many years ago I was unhappy in my surroundings, activities, and in my relationships with others. Physically I was near a breaking point. Walking had become especially difficult. Most disturbing to me was the feeling that I no longer had the freedom or the ability to work out my own salvation according to the teachings of Christian Science. In this state of thought I considered myself a failure, totally useless to anyone, including myself. I felt like giving up, even committing suicide.

The alternative, of course, was not to give up but to take a steadfast stand for Christian Science no matter what the consequence would be with those who opposed it. I telephoned to a Christian Science practitioner, asking her to help me regain the inspiration needed to enable me to walk upright and free.
