Relying upon the healing power of God is the most deeply...
Relying upon the healing power of God is the most deeply rewarding way to worship Him. Christian Science healing is consistent in its effectiveness and brings a greater awareness of our closeness to God and His unfailing love for us. For the many healings I have experienced and witnessed, I am very appreciative. But I find myself, as do so many others, even more grateful for the spiritual growth that inevitably attends each healing.
About two years ago, I woke one morning to find one eye sealed closed. When I bathed the area to open it, I noticed the eye was badly inflamed, and that there was a growth inside the lid.
I prayed to know that God's creation is perfect and that I reflect that perfection. I held my thoughts to this for several days. The external evidence of the condition cleared up, but underneath, the growth was still there.
