You can rely on God—ALL THE TIME

HI, MY NAME IS BRITTANY. One day I was closing the door, and my finger got stuck in a spot where it shouldn't have been. The door closed on it. My mom helped me get it out. My finger hurt a lot.

I called my dad. (He is a Christian Science practitioner.) He helped me pray and gave me a lot of good thoughts. For example, he said that God made me, and that everything that God makes is perfect. Nobody could ever fall out of God's care because He is everywhere and you can rely on Him all the time. I thought about how I was made perfect and that I was full of God's good thoughts.

Mom and Dad took me to a Christian Science nurse, who helped bandage my finger.
