I have had many healings through the study of the Bible and Science and Health. One night I pulled a dresser drawer out too far and it fell on my leg and foot. I didn't think much about it, picked up the drawer, put it back in place, and went to bed. The next morning when I got up, I was surprised to see my foot and leg greatly discolored. Walking was difficult.
In praying, I knew, as Science and Health tells us, "Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need" (p. 494). And I thanked God for His ever-present goodness, for the allness of Spirit and the nothingness of matter. I remembered reading about an Indian chief who said he walked with beauty along the way. He saw every blade of grass, the flowers and trees, all beautiful in color and shape, and all God's creation. And in the weekly Bible Lesson (found in the Christian Science Quarterly) not long before this, there had been many references to beauty.
I decided I could walk with beauty in taking care of my situation. I found beauty all around. Love was expressed at home, in church, wherever I went. I chose to be happy and rejoice in this Love and beauty.
