One day at my gymnastics class I was playing on a trampoline, and we had to do some hard things. We had to dive onto it, and curl up in a ball, and do a somersault. Well, when I did it, I curled up and did the right thing, but I hurt my nose and my knee. My mom came to pick me up. On the way home we talked about the qualities of God I was expressing. I said I was expressing balance, grace, joy, energy, strength, poise. I knew that when I was reflecting God I couldn't be hurt. When I got home I was all better. So I went out to play. I said, "Thank you, God!"

Meredith's father and I were filled with gratitude that this healing came so immediately. Meredith and I prayed out loud together all the way home in the car. She was very receptive to the spiritual fact that she could not be hurt while taking part in an activity in which she glorified God. She had expressed such joy during her summer gymnastics class, and I knew this came from the Father, and could not be taken away from her.
