'THINK ON THESE THINGS'

ROD WAGNER with contributions from VICKI WAGNER

When I found Christian Science in 1982, I crossed a threshold into a life I never knew existed. Since then, I haven't needed material medicine, because prayer has prevented illness or healed me. I recall only one day when I was ill to the point that I felt I would have to miss work. I was a night shift security employee at the time. Lying in bed, shaking with chills, I called my Christian Science teacher and asked for his prayer, since I was not able to pray for myself. Although I don't recall the specific points of his treatment, the prayer was extremely quick and effective. I felt better and went to work that very night.

In my 15 years of employment with that organization, I didn't miss a single night of work because of sickness. This I attribute entirely to what I was learning in my study of Science and Health. A deeper understanding of the Biblical truths that Mary Baker Eddy discovered makes consistent health possible.

My family, too, has benefited greatly from practicing Christian Science. Early in 2004, my wife, who is not a Christian Scientist, complained of heart palpitations. This had occurred once or twice in the past, but had subsided after a short period of time. This time, however, the symptoms were more acute and prolonged, and my wife became very afraid.
