As a lifelong Christian Scientist, I have many reasons to be grateful for the healing truth Science teaches. But I had never perceived more clearly than through a recent healing, how necessary is a purification of thought to effect a needed change. The rules for practicing Science are infallible and the results sure if we are sincere and faithful and follow them intelligently.

Almost two years ago I became aware of a blemish on my forehead. As it wasn't too noticeable, I gave it cursory attention in my prayers but didn't really get down to specific, deep study of Christian Science. Months went by until one day I awoke to the fact that I'd been unwittingly cherishing a general belief about skin ailments and their supposed causes. I decided to make a consecrated effort to pray about the problem, and I also asked for help from a Christian Science practitioner. She assured me that this was an opportunity to go up higher—to gain a fuller understanding of God.
