Lump removed through prayer; career change accomplished

Cheryl Petersen

When I could not make a fist with my hand, I discovered that what I had thought was just a callus was really a hard lump inside my ring finger, and it was growing larger. Fear presented itself. This fear was not helpful, however, whereas getting my thoughts based on divine Love, not fear, would provide the safe answer I needed.

I reasoned, What was this problem stopping me from doing? Grasping, grabbing on to, and holding. I was disappointed to think something could tell me I wasn't able to grasp and hold on to things, especially spiritual ideas from Love, God. In fact, that couldn't be true. God made me able and willing to understand all spiritual ideas.

Because my wedding ring was bothering me, I asked myself, What does the ring represent? Marriage. I have a great marriage and constantly turn to God to keep it fresh, happy, and productive. And, whatever new inspiration God was giving me about it, I could grasp.
