'NOTHING IS LOST'

BY WELLINGTON ANDERSON DANIEL SILVA

Two years ago I found out about a practical method of praying that changed my life: Christian Science, which can be defined as the set of divine laws in action that bring healing to all problems.

I always passed in front of the Christian Science church of which I am now a member. I noticed the Herald magazines in the window because the subjects were of interest to teenagers. I began reading in the Heralds testimonies from teenagers from around the whole world, and I identified with their experiences.

For months I read and wanted to find out more about that church and Christian Science. But the fear of not liking what I would learn, of being rejected, of finding disparities between the theory and the practice, kept me away. Nowadays I realize that my first healing took place when I became free of that fear.
