Foot condition healed
At the end of last year an uncle whom I hadn’t seen in a long time passed by my home. I was curious to know why he was visiting. He mentioned that he was now a Christian Scientist. He shared with me how real God’s love is and told me about some amazing testimonies of healing. I did not hesitate to ask him to pray for my son.
For a year, my eight-year-old son had not been able to walk because of cracked and bleeding feet. I had tried taking him to the hospital, and I’d also tried alternative healing methods, but nothing changed. I was troubled so much that I was planning to seek help from witch doctors.
My uncle assured me my son would be healed through scientific Christianity—Christian Science—which teaches us that man is already perfect as God’s image and likeness. He told me that there was no need to visit a witch doctor, for God is man’s Life. My uncle also shared with me some scriptural verses that affirmed God as the only power and as all-good, and that this must mean His creation is “very good” as it says in Genesis 1.
