Quick healing of bee sting
As a longtime Christian Scientist, for years I have started my day by studying the Bible Lesson, which is composed of citations from the Bible and from the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, as a foundation for my day.
On one particular day after my morning study, I started out to my garden and was stung on my nose by a bumblebee. I felt intense pain.
I contemplated what to do. I felt as if I needed to do something immediately, so I did what I always do. I turned wholeheartedly to God, knowing He is my protector and that nothing could actually touch me but good. I knew this to be true because I’m God’s child (as everyone actually is) and dwell in His all-encompassing goodness.
