Christian Science has been indispensable to me in my work on a research paper. For the past three years I have been engaged in analyzing and writing about the choral music of an American composer. Through prayer, I have endeavored to glimpse something of the inspiration behind the music and understand that my research in this area could truly be a reflection of divine intelligence and order.
I began to doubt my ability to continue the research. I could not seem to find a rule of organization on which one particular piece of music was based. I knew that there had to be a unifying law, a key to my clearer understanding, but I could not see it. I grew irritable and angry with myself. Then despair and fear closed in on me. Sharp pains began appearing in my body. Acute embarrassment kept me from calling colleagues in my own field for any advice professionally.
