I prayed and passed
Hello. My name is Benadette. I am 12 years old. I go to a Christian Science Sunday School. I love praying the Lord's Prayer and reading the Bible and Science and Health. These are two books that help me solve many problems.
One day I was nervous because I had to write an examination the next day. So I began to pray. I thought about God and His love for me.
When I went to school the next morning, I sat at the desk that was assigned to me. A few minutes later, the teacher came with the papers. I just kept thinking about the love and care of God. In a few minutes, I knew how to do everything that was on the papers. I did well on the exam.
This showed me that angels (God's thoughts) are everywhere, protecting and helping me. Even when there are no other people around to help, God is there. I know I'm not alone, because God is with me.
I love Christian Science because it teaches me how to solve my problems and get healed.
