My family has had many healings in Christian Science over the years. Our study and demonstration of its truths have renewed and revolutionized our lives. Here I would like to tell about one recent healing.

One Thursday in the spring of 1991, when I was working in our woods, I carelessly reached down into a mountain laurel bush to clear away some of the weeds that were choking it. I felt a sharp prick on my hand and looked down to see a coiled copperhead snake. I was frightened and jumped back. The two men who were working with me were terribly afraid. We went back to the house as fast as we could.

Trembling with fear, I called a Christian Science practitioner to pray for me. I got my Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy and tried to pray to calm myself. When a neighbor stopped by, the men told her what had happened. She came right into the house, declaring that I should have a doctor look at the hand. Because I was so frightened, I agreed to let her drive me to a nearby doctor's office.
