One morning I woke up with a slight headache and told my mom about it. That afternoon there was a ballet rehearsal, but I told my mom I'd be Ok. However, about an hour later at rehearsal I had trouble seeing. Soon I couldn't walk straight. Everyone kept saying, "Oh, Mollie, you look so sick. Do you want to sit down?" I kept remembering that God made me, so I couldn't really be sick.

As soon as I got home, my mother called a Christian Science practitioner to pray for me. Then Mom put me to bed and read me the Bible Lesson in the Christian Science Quarterly. We talked over the lesson section by section. Soon I fell asleep. When I woke up, I was healed. I got up and ate my supper without any trouble. I'm so grateful for the help of the practitioner.

Another experience I had was when I went horseback riding at a resort where my sister worked. We had heard that some of the horses were hard to handle. The night before we were to go, my mother woke and felt disturbed. She prayed and knew that God was always with me. Next day at the resort, we rode the trail, and I had no major problems. But right after I'd got off the horse at the end of the ride, another horse kicked mine. My horse reared and fell over on its side, but no one was injured—not even the horse. I was so glad that Mom had prayed for me.
