One Wednesday morning on...
One Wednesday morning on arising, I found that I could not walk straight. I studied the Bible and Mrs. Eddy's works, along with our periodicals, all day, but when it was time to go to the testimony meeting at church I still felt wobbly. However, knowing that it was right for me to attend the meeting, I went to church. I could hardly walk into church, but so much love was expressed by the ushers that I was able to make my way to a seat beside someone I knew to be a practitioner, and I asked for help.
Her treatment that night quieted me and enabled me to sleep a few hours, but then I awoke feeling miserable. My body was shaking, but I knew that was fear; so I studied earnestly, and in about three or four hours I was able to sleep. I think there was in my thought a little fear of the false belief that there is a time when one must pass on, because I am in what is called the elderly group.
When I arose the next morning I still had the wobbly feeling, which made me feel listless and inadequate. I felt I had to go to a meeting of the literature distribution committee, but when I arrived, one of the other women on the committee had to help me into the church. The chairman's loving greeting helped me to feel I could do my share of the work, and I did it, after spending a few minutes in further study.
