From Russia
Once I developed a very good friendship with someone of the opposite sex. Soon, I found myself attracted to that individual. The communication I once had with my friend became dimmed by this more personal relationship.
I realized I needed to pray for healing of this situation. In Christian Science, prayer that heals is called “treatment.” I would treat myself again and again, in order to gain some peace.
I declared that I was an expression of God, and that this situation could not be disturbing. Often, however, I would feel unhappy again.
