Spiritual healing in the light of Christian Science

Spiritual healing is based on spiritual laws that we can practice in everyday life. The key is understanding and utilizing those laws.

How do Christian Scientists deal with the troubles of everyday life—things like sickness, loss, wrongdoing? Although Christian Science can comfort and sustain us amid a sea of disturbing relationships, disappointments, and frustrations, there may be times when our challenges seem so real that we feel separated from God. The spiritual good reflected from Him may seem illusive. Even our declarations of truth may lack spiritual conviction.

Instead of becoming discouraged or giving up, this is the time to dig in! When the spiritual relationship that exists between God and His reflection, our real selfhood, is sufficiently understood, spiritual healing inevitably follows. Through the dedicated and persistent study and practice of this Science, spiritual growth does take place, and accompanying this growth, a more spiritual sense of being is achieved.

We see more clearly that God is wholly good, that He is divine Mind, Life, Truth, Love. As Father-Mother, He is the creator of His spiritual universe, including the true selfhood of each one of us. Not a vestige of evil, sin, or discord exists in Him. God's law—His substance, presence, and power—is unchallenged and uninvadable.
