POINTS OF LIGHT

ROSALINDA JOHNSON

NO ONE COULD HAVE DESCRIBED for me the long-sought happiness that can be found by prayerfully reading and pondering the entire Bible. I remembered my grandmother's devotion to it. And I knew how three years of intensive Bible study had dynamically reversed Mary Baker Eddy's misfortunes and blessed her richly (see Science and Health, p. 109).

So I decided that my own quiet, prayerful examination of the Scriptures might help me discover the inspiration, or points of light, that had led Mrs. Eddy—and my grandmother—to revitalized, purposeful lives, and to remarkable healings.
