BACK PAIN HEALED

TRACY COLERIDER-KRUGH

One Sunday in November 2007, I woke up feeling just fine. However, when I bent over to seal a bag of cat food, I felt a popping in my back and buckled to my knees.

I have successfully relied on Christian Science for healing many times, and the first thing I thought of, after the initial surprise and discomfort, was "the scientific statement of being" from Science and Health, by Mary Baker Eddy. It begins: "There is no life, truth, intelligence, nor substance in matter. All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation, for God is All-in-all," and ends, "Therefore man is not material; he is spiritual" (p. 468). The significance of these familiar powerful words—affirming what was true for me and what was not true—filled me with gratitude and dispelled my fears.
