Joint pain gone
For quite a few months I’d been having problems with stiffness and pain in my joints. Whenever I experienced pain, I’d pray to know my oneness, my unity, with God as His very expression. This pattern carried on for months.
Then I began to notice a stiffness in my legs; my walking didn’t feel as light and nimble as it normally did. I was becoming quite concerned and wanted to devote more time to praying about these issues. Prayer as taught in Christian Science has been very effective for me in overcoming many problems over the last four or five decades. Prayer always involves getting a better understanding of God’s love and of our relation to Him.
For example, I have seen wonderful evidence of God’s care for me and my family, such as when my infant son was freed from a facial scald after hot coffee was accidentally spilled all over his face (see Sentinel, May 5, 1997). I have been healed of burns, various sicknesses, relationship problems, severe depression, and much more.
