Persistent prayer brings peace

Hank Richter

One evening I felt a sudden, painful, tight constriction in my chest. At first I thought it was just a muscle strain. But as the pain got worse and worse, I realized that I was perhaps having a serious heart problem. Soon it became very difficult for me to breathe comfortably, and I was very frightened.

Generally, my first reaction to any disturbing event is to turn to God on my own in prayer. But this time I decided to also ask a Christian Science practitioner to pray for me. During our phone coversation, she recommended several passages from Science and Health for me to review and study. Her calming voice was a big help, and I thought a healing was well on its way to being accomplished.
