Motorcycle accident injuries healed

Reta Moser

It was a warm spring day. My friend and I were riding my Honda 90 motorcycle in the Santa Monica Mountains. When I started to feel cold, I asked my friend to drive. All was well until we started down a hill in Topanga Canyon. My friend missed the curve, and I was thrown off the bike onto my face and knee.

When I became conscious, I realized my face was bleeding. I was still relatively new to Christian Science, but I immediately and silently recited “the scientific statement of being” from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. That statement reads: “There is no life, truth, intelligence, nor substance in matter. All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation, for God is All-in-all. Spirit is immortal Truth; matter is mortal error. Spirit is the real and eternal; matter is the unreal and temporal. Spirit is God, and man is His image and likeness. Therefore man is not material; he is spiritual” (p. 468).

I was interrupted by someone yelling “She’s alive!” At that point, I knew it would be in my best interest, as a Christian Scientist, to be on my way, so as to not be bombarded by the fearful thoughts of those around me.
