When I came back to Christian Science
About six or seven years ago I became discouraged about the power and presence of God and stopped studying Christian Science. I still attended church because I drove my mother to the services.
But after my mother passed on, I stopped going to church. In fact, I felt mad at God. I threw away almost all of the Christian Science literature that I had, but kept a Bible and the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy.
I also turned to medicine for the ailments that plagued me, instead of turning to prayer for healing. But I was not aided.
