Throat pain gone

Toni Turpen

One morning recently I woke with pain in my throat, and I was unable to swallow normally. My husband and I were scheduled to fly to Oregon that morning for a family wedding, and I was worried about being able to participate. I quickly grabbed the Christian Science Bible Lesson. That week, it was on the subject of “Sacrament.”

Right away, as I began to read the Lesson, a verse from Matthew jumped out at me. It is where two disciples answer Christ Jesus that they “are able” to drink of the cup he drinks of (see Matthew 20:22). I liked the idea of being able. And I asked myself, “What am I able to do?” The answer was to pray for myself. With that I felt confident that I could make the trip.
