WALKING WITH LOVE

Over the years, I've had many healings through Christian Science, and I'd like to share two of them. The first incident occurred when I was visiting my daughter. It was raining quite heavily, and on my way there I was walking down a tree-lined road that had lots of wet leaves on the ground. Before I knew what was happening, I fell to the ground, and my leg twisted underneath me. I heard a loud crack. I tried to get up, but my leg was too painful to take any weight.

As soon as I'd collected myself, a verse from Psalms came to me that I had thought about earlier on: "The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord." It continues, "Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand" (37:23, 24). I felt that this was an angel message telling me that God governed me and that I was held safely in His love. From my study of Christian Science I understood that I was the perfect reflection, or idea, of God, and because of this, I could never be outside God's care.

A passerby offered to take me to my daughter's house, which was only about five minutes away. I gratefully accepted.
