My gratitude to God for Christian Science is unbounded

My gratitude to God for Christian Science is unbounded. Since I've known of this religion, my whole life has changed.

One week, I fell and hurt a shoulder. Soon after that, an abscess developed in a tooth. And during the same week, I burned my hand.

I telephoned a Christian Science practitioner and told her about all that had happened. She responded by agreeing to pray with me and by reminding me of the omnipotence, omnipresence, and omniscience of God. A few hours later my hand had not the slightest sign of a burn.

The abscess in the tooth, however, continued to cause discomfort. I telephoned a dentist, who scheduled a surgical treatment for seven o'clock the next morning.

I realized that it wasn't really my preference to have dental surgery, so I spoke again with the practitioner. Together we affirmed that true substance is spiritual, and we became deeply conscious that all God creates is spiritual and perfect.

The following morning I went to the dentist. He examined me and said that there was nothing for him to do, because the abscess had cleared up completely. I left the clinic grateful to know that God is all-powerful, unchanging Love.

By the end of that day, I noticed that the discomfort in my shoulder had ceased.

The omnipotence, omnipresence, and omniscience of God had healed me.
