CHEST PAINS HEALED
Two years ago, I began to feel sharp pains in my chest. For the first few days I ignored the discomfort. On the third day the pain became so pronounced that I began to have difficulty breathing. It was clear to me as a Christian Scientist that I needed to stop my daily routine and pray specifically about it.
As I turned my thought to God, I prayed for guidance. I soon realised that what needed to be healed was even more than a physical condition; I recognized a build-up of resentment and self-righteousness in my thinking. I had learned during many Christian Science healings that inharmony of any sort—whether physical or mental—would dissolve through seeing myself, and those around me, as governed completely by God.
