Back pain gone, mobility restored
In the summer of 2017, I hurt my back a few days before a vacation trip and was having trouble getting around. Although I was praying about the problem and receiving prayerful treatment from a Christian Science practitioner, I wasn’t making progress. When it was time to leave, the pain was worse, and I didn’t think I could get out of bed. I wondered if I should cancel the trip.
Then the thought came, “If someone called you now and asked for Christian Science treatment for a similar condition, what would you say?” I asked God what I needed to know, and was reminded of a verse from that week’s Bible Lesson, found in the Christian Science Quarterly: “The Lord will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life” (Psalms 42:8).
