Severe cold gone quickly

Alex Basil Mayaka

After traveling a day and a half to take Primary class instruction in Christian Science, I arrived feeling exhausted and aching. I had gone many kilometers through different climatic regions, and the weather in this location was cold compared to where I came from. I went to sleep hoping the aching would ease.

When I woke up early the next morning to prepare for the class I was to attend later that day, I had symptoms of a severe cold. However, I turned my thoughts away from the sneezing and coughing because I knew that God did not create sickness. I was following an instruction concerning a law of God stated in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy: “Keep in mind the verity of being,—that man is the image and likeness of God, in whom all being is painless and permanent” (p. 414).
