GOD'S HEALING PRESENCE
Several months ago, as I was on a transatlantic flight, I was confronted with severe sinus pressure. The pain was incredibly intense. I had no idea how I was even going to make it through the rest of the flight, even though we were almost there.
Because of the severity of the situation, one of my first thoughts was just stopping the pain. I had a brief moment of realizing that even if I wanted to take medicine, or receive medical help in some way, it would be practically impossible to get quick relief, given the circumstances.
In an instant, the fullness of God's help and God's presence, everywhere, came to my thought. I turned completely to God in prayer. During this trip I'd been praying about some family issues, and I thought of one of the passages from Science and Health I'd been turning to: "Discord is the nothingness named error. Harmony is the somethingness named Truth" (p. 276). The statement became crystal clear to me. I had an instantaneous healing, and all the pain was gone. And this issue hasn't happened again.
God's blessings abound, and this is testament to them!
