For eight months my mother...
For eight months my mother and I had taken every human footstep to sell our home. After listing it with real estate brokers who brought many prospective buyers, we became anxious and disturbed over the numerous excuses and varied complaints about the property. We knew that there was only one Mind operating, but we realized that some prayerful thinking was needed away from mortal struggles. So the home, was closed, and we took a week's vacation for the purpose of prayer and study.
After attending the Wednesday evening testimony meeting in the Christian Science Society in the small resort town where we were staying, we met one of the clerks from our hotel. She was a Scientist and told us of an experience she had just gone through in selling her home located in another state. Now, she knew nothing of our struggle; but by sharing with us her blessing, she gave us needed comfort and renewed strength to return home to see the conclusion of this problem.
Because an anxious thought still persisted even after we had returned home, a Christian Science practitioner was called to give us support. An advertisement was placed in the local paper for Sunday. Only two people responded; but by Tuesday the escrow was started, and it was finished in ten days. The price realized from the sale was above any amount previously listed, and all concerned were truly blessed.
