I'm in my car driving along, and all the cars are pressing in on me. There's a giant truck behind me that's two inches from my bumper. Is there something I could be thinking that would help me feel less afraid?

I love in Science and Health where Mary Baker Eddy wrote: "Accidents are unknown to God, or immortal Mind, and we must leave the mortal basis of belief and unite with the one Mind, in order to change the notion of chance to the proper sense of God's unerring direction and thus bring out harmony. Under divine Providence there can be no accidents, since there is no room for imperfection in perfection" (p. 424).
