Knee problem gone
Originally written in Portuguese, this testimony first appeared in the September 2013 Portuguese, French, German, and Spanish editions of The Herald of Christian Science.
I served in the Brazilian military for the greater part of my career. A few years ago, after I retired, I started to work at a commercial enterprise. In this new occupation, the time available to me to have normal exercise was reduced to almost zero.
About two years into my retirement, when I resumed some of my physical activities such as running, my knees started to hurt. On one occasion, when I had run in the morning, by the afternoon both my knees felt very stiff. I had to make an effort just to bend my legs.
As a student of Christian Science, I am accustomed to leaning on prayer for the healing of every difficulty, including physical conditions. I have learned that dysfunction of any kind comes down to a mistaken sense of our true being, which is spiritual—made in the image and likeness of God.
