'I felt God's presence within me'
When one’s thoughts advance, all is advanced in our lives. It’s like technology—it starts and sweeps the whole world in no time. And a change in thought never leaves us where it found us.
After college, I lived with my sister, who was a Christian Scientist. I wondered how she could have changed from being a staunch member of the religion in which we were raised. I was convinced there was nothing, come rain or shine, that could make me abandon our parents’ religion. I thought of Christian Science as a very new religion, since it was not widely known in my area and had no beautiful church buildings. So each Sunday, my sister and I parted in different directions to attend church services.
