My testimony of a healing of one leg being shorter than the other was shared years ago on the Christian Science radio program "The Truth That Heals." Since that healing I have witnessed numerous others within my family.

About seven years ago, one day while I was swimming with a friend I became very uncomfortable. Every time I lifted my right arm, I felt something obstructing my movement. Thinking it was an object that had become lodged in my swimsuit, I tried to remove it. The object was a large lump on my breast. I was very afraid. Holding on to the side of the pool, I affirmed specific truths of my real, spiritual selfhood and denied the discordant evidence of the physical senses.

Later I pondered a passage from Science and Health with Key tothe Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy (p. 475): "Man is idea, the image, of Love; he is not physique. He is the compound idea of God, including all right ideas; ... that which has no separate mind from God; that which has not a single quality underived from Deity; that which possesses no life, intelligence, nor creative power of his own, but reflects spiritually all that belongs to his Maker."
