Chronic hip condition healed

Jewel Simmons

It was New Year's Day. I was happily packing items and cleaning up our home following the holiday week. After sitting for a short break, I stood up and suddenly had a terrible pain in my lower back and hip. There was no explanation for it, except that many years earlier I'd fallen on my hip in a restaurant.

I had been listening to a recording of a Sentinel Radio broadcast the day before, in which a man talked about a similar condition. He had been able to deal with it by reasoning spiritually, and as a result he had been able to go about his day with steady physical improvement. My husband and I had plans to go on an outing that afternoon, and I decided I was not going to let this incident keep me down.

It felt as if something in my hip had slipped or had been strained. With some difficulty, I was able to finish my cleaning and enjoy our afternoon, although I was not free from pain.
