I have found healing ideas and encouragement from the testimonies in the Christian Science periodicals so many times that it is time I share the following proof of God's power in my own life.

On a spring evening while it was still light, my husband was hitting fly balls to our young son Rob at a nearby schoolyard. I was working in the garden. All at once I had a strong feeling that something wasn't right. I stopped what I was doing and went into the house, declaring the power and presence of God to care for His universe. I remember spreading out my prayer to include the whole world.

In a few moments my husband and son returned; the boy had been hit on the forehead above the eye by a golf ball, and the injury was alarming. My husband told me that while he was hitting balls to Rob, the boy had fallen backward on the grass. A young man had come running from behind, saying it was his golf ball that had hit Rob. He urged my husband to let him take them to the hospital; my husband said that we would take care of him. The two men exchanged telephone numbers, and my husband brought Rob home. Although he was shaken, Rob responded to the strong declarations of spiritual truth my husband and I voiced aloud, and to our desire to provide him comfort and love.
