Two special healings
One day I was walking to school with my mom, and my knee was hurting a lot. My mom noticed I was limping and asked what was wrong. I told her my knee hurt. My mom reminded me that I could listen for God’s good thoughts and be comforted. I knew that listening to God was a way of praying and would heal my knee.
My mom started singing a hymn I like. The first verse starts, “I walk with Love along the way, / And O, it is a holy day” ((Minny M. H. Ayers, Christian Science Hymnal, No. 139, © CSBD). I held my mom’s hand while she sang the hymn. We walked slowly because of my knee. I thought about the words and that I’m safe walking with Love. Love doesn’t let any pain come to me.
When my mom finished singing the hymn, she asked if I wanted to sing the first verse with her. We hadn’t even finished singing the verse when I felt all better. I went running off toward school. I was healed.
