Safety in Central Park; injury and allergy healed
One evening a friend and I decided to leave a play being given in Central Park in New York City early. Because of the distance between the theater area and the street, we had quite a distance to walk. As we were going along the path, a young man came out of the wooded area and headed toward us. It was clear his intentions were not good.
As he drew nearer to us, my friend commented that we should not react to evil, but respond to Truth-God. And with that statement, my fear subsided and was replaced by a spiritual sense of love for this individual. My friend and I continued our brisk pace while we had a very friendly conversation with the young man. As we approached the park exit, I reached into my handbag and gave him a copy of the Sentinel and told him that this magazine would be very helpful to him. He gratefully received it, and then leaned over and gave me a kiss on the check. His face had changed totally, and he looked at peace and happy.
During a visit with a relative one summer, I woke one morning with one of my eyes very red and swollen. I prayed, and though the situation did not change immediately, the intuition came to fill my thought with gratitude, appreciation, and love for my hostess. Shortly after this, the two of us began chatting outside her cottage, and I became aware of what a beautiful transparency of divine Love she was. Almost immediately, the difficulty with my eye vanished.
