Persistent leg trouble healed
For some time, I was having difficulty with my right leg. There was often stiffness, which made walking painful, and something felt out of alignment. I’d had other healings during this time, yet this particular issue lingered.
When climbing stairs, I had to two-step each stair, pulling myself up by the railing. Walking in general was labored, and crossing my legs was out of the question when sitting. I had some help from a Christian Science practitioner and did well when she was giving prayerful treatment. But after several days of praying on my own, the problem would reappear.
The discomfort would shift locations, to me clear evidence that it was mental, the effect of animal magnetism, or the carnal mind, which is opposed to God. Only God has power, and I needed to deny whatever the carnal mind suggested and affirm God’s allness. I sensed that there was something in my thought that needed to be corrected, brought into harmony with the understanding of God, and that I needed to work this out.
