Severe leg injury healed

Jacquelin Brown

Both my husband and I were raised in Christian Science, and we met at the University of California, Berkeley, in the Christian Science Organization. We raised our children in this Science, and our family always had quick healings of childhood illnesses and injuries.

I would like to share a wonderful healing I had several years ago. Some steps had been replaced on the stairway outside our home, and as I was going downstairs one day, my shoe caught on one of the new steps, causing me to fall down head first. As I was falling, my thought turned to God, and I knew that in reality the everlasting arms of Love were always around me, keeping me safe.

A long, deep gash on my leg was bleeding heavily. A young man who was certified in emergency medical training was at our house, and he helped me inside and examined the wound. He said I needed many stitches and wanted to take me to the hospital. Instead, I called a Christian Science practitioner and asked for treatment through prayer.
