Stomach problem healed

Jeffrey Scott Johnson

I want to express my profound gratitude for Christian Science practitioners, who devote themselves so selflessly to helping others through prayer. A few years ago, early one morning, I found myself suffering from what appeared to be the effects of food poisoning. I called a Christian Science practitioner for help since I was having trouble praying for myself because of the intense pain.

The first thing she told me was that I wasn’t going to “fall” for this. She was alluding to the subject of that week’s Bible Lesson from the Christian Science Quarterly—“Adam and Fallen Man.” This proved to be a turning point in my thought, because her words reminded me that this problem was a deception, not the truth of my being.
