Because I have received innumerable...
Because I have received innumerable benefits from Christian Science during many years, I should like to tell others how I have been remarkably protected and cared for by our Father-Mother God.
One day I sat sewing on my porch after dinner. My sewing apron contained a plastic box of pins, two pairs of scissors, several razor blades in a holder, and also a package of needles. Suddenly a gust of wind arose and blew away the bag of materials with which I was working. I was seated in an aluminum chair, and in reaching for the; bag I suddenly found myself rolling down the five porch steps, still seated in the chair, until I found myself on the cement walk below the stairs. As I was falling the thought came to me, "Man never fell."
A man who was driving past saw me, stopped his car, and hurried to me. As he approached I said: "I am all right. Will you please lift me up?" He did. I arose, entered my house, and found that none of the sharp things in my sewing apron had touched me. My wrist watch was unharmed, and I can truly say that a discoloration of the flesh on one arm and one limb was the only evidence of the fall, and that soon vanished as the result of my prayerful work about it.
