AN 'INCREDIBLE HEALING' OF A WRIST INJURY

ROBERTA ALFORD

What a surprise when I found myself flat on my face on the pavement next to my vehicle! I was showing homes to new clients, and we were at the first house on our tour. As I turned to get out of the car, my heel caught in the strap of my purse. I was stunned as I hit the street full force. Not wanting to cause my clients any concern, I dusted myself off and proceeded to show the house. My hand was hanging awkwardly. With a little effort I was able to slip the hand into my suit jacket above a button, and I completed the tour of three more homes.

What I really wanted next was some quiet time to pray. My whole life I had depended on God to meet any untoward circumstance, and I was confident that a healing was not just possible, but assured. By this time I was in considerable pain and was holding back a torrent of tears as I headed to my office. Because of a list of appointments and obligations that would have inconvenienced many by my absence, I couldn't go home. As I pushed through the door of my very busy real estate office, several agents could see that I was in need of help. As I tried to explain the incident to these very caring individuals, they were trying to whisk me off to the emergency care facility across the parking lot.

My husband worked in the same office, and hearing the commotion, came to see what was happening. Though he had become interested in Christian Science as a result of several healings he had seen with our children, and of healings he'd experienced himself, at that moment he seemed swept up in the frenzy and surprised me when he agreed with the others that I should seek medical attention.
