Prayer heals recurring lung problems
One day at work I began to experience symptoms of a cold. Since I was deeply engrossed in my work, I neglected to pray about it. The next day the symptoms worsened, and they ultimately turned into a severe bout with persistent coughing and symptoms of pneumonia.
I called a Christian Science practitioner for treatment through prayer, and I also began praying for myself. The symptoms were frightening to others, so I remained at home much of the time and experienced much spiritual growth during this time of consecrated prayer.
Within about two months, the problem was healed. But whenever I had a cold after that, it would evolve into the same condition, which often lingered for weeks and even months. The coughing was especially difficult. Each time this occurred, I’d eventually experience healing through prayer, but the problem continued to recur over the years.
