PERSISTENT PRAYER BRINGS HEALING

ELIZABETH CRECELIUS SCHWARTZ

About ten years ago, I became aware of an ongoing soreness in my throat. At times, it was very painful, while at other times I was hardly aware of it. The discharge of a very unlovely substance accompanied the condition.

Throughout my life, I've turned to prayer for all my needs, including physical needs. I've always been grateful for the spiritual regeneration and reformation of thought that bring healing. So I started to pray diligently, as I'd learned to do in Christian Science.

A few times, when the condition worsened, fear and despair would get the better of me. During those times, I wondered if I should get a physical diagnosis. However, I was convinced that the medical name and treatment of the condition would not help me in my desire for a deeper understanding of my relationship to God. And I wanted to see healing through spiritual means alone.
