For many years I had an increasing feeling of dissatisfaction...
For many years I had an increasing feeling of dissatisfaction with my life and wondered why it lacked real depth and purpose. Each time sadness and illness struck down the people I loved, I felt both protest and bewilderment that we should seem helpless against this injustice. Then one day, after many years of suffering from back problems, I found myself bedridden with no hope of recovery.
In despair I opened the Bible and read the twenty-third and other psalms; for the first time, there was a touch of comfort and a hint of some unseen presence revealing itself to me through the words. Then I was led to ask a friend about Christian Science and to visit a Christian Science practitioner.
The radiance of a love I had never felt before filled my consciousness, and I knew this was the truth for which I had always been searching. When I returned home, my daughter was in bed with the flu. I simply thought, "That's not right!" She was healed, though at the time I did not understand how.
