TRUST ME, PRAYER WORKS!

BY KINDAHL JACKSON

TO EXPECT PROGRESS in everything you do is really important to me. Sometimes it's so easy to think you're stuck in a relationship problem, with a class at school, or with your performance in a sport. But I've found that with God, you can only—and always—go forward.

I'm a huge multitasker, and like most of my friends I have a very busy schedule, but the daily time I set aside for prayer—even if it's just five or ten minutes—is absolutely vital to me. Since I was raised in Christian Science, turning to prayer for solutions to all sorts of challenges has become a natural response for me. And I've had a few experiences that have especially inspired me and made me even more dedicated to studying this Science.
