As I had always enjoyed good health, I took it more or less for granted, even after I had accepted Christian Science as a way of life. A few years ago, however, I learned that a mere belief my good health is not enough.
At the time, I faced a challenge of pain here and there in my body. Then, quite quickly my entire body was affected, so that I was hardly able to walk. I requested and received help in Christian Science. Through this prayerful aid I felt roused to examine my thinking and motives. As I did, I found that I mainly wanted to be relieved of pain. I finally realized that what was needed was a deep change of thought. I determined to take up the challenge and work it out alone with God. I told this to the practitioner then praying for me, and he graciously agreed to withdraw from the case.
