An injured hand healed through prayer
Original in Spanish
One afternoon, at the Miami airport, I was working in the tourist cabin of a Boeing 707, while the passengers boarded the plane.
A very large box containing the passengers' food, which was more than three feet in height, became stuck. I had to exert a lot of effort to move it, and the ring finger of my left hand became wedged between the galley [the airplane's kitchen] and the steel edge of the box. My finger began to bleed profusely.
The first thing I did was remember the beginning of "the scientific statement of being," from Science and Health: "There is no life, truth, intelligence, nor substance in matter. All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation, for God is All-in-all" (p. 468). This was the first passage I had ever learned by heart from this book.
