Daughter's warts healed

Rob Bacon

About five years ago, my daughter complained to my wife that she was having difficulty walking. My wife looked at the sole of our daughter’s foot and discovered that she had ingrown warts. When my wife mentioned this to me, we agreed to pray about it. I knew that God’s power could heal this condition, based on my own experience. 

As a cross country runner in high school, I had experienced a similar difficulty. A problem with warts had forced me to stop running and made it uncomfortable for me to walk, too. I had phoned a Christian Science practitioner, and he’d agreed to help me through prayer-based Christian Science treatment. I remember reading from the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, by Mary Baker Eddy, to learn more about God’s healing power. After about two weeks, the thought came to me clearly that the diseased condition was not physical at all but simply a false belief, since God is wholly good and could not create or allow disease or evil. This new view of the situation lessened my fear and I felt I would be healed. Within a week of this, I was walking without pain and the warts on my feet were gone. With joy, I began running once again. I was very grateful for the practitioner’s help and felt the love of God that he expressed.

Gratitude for this healing filled my thought as I prayed for my daughter.
