Severed fingertip healed
While handling a very sharp knife, my husband cut himself, severing his fingertip. I quickly stepped in and firmly asked him to look away from his hand as I placed the tip back on and held it in place. He allowed me to bandage it, and I reminded him of other quick healings he had experienced through prayer, but he was in pain.
As we prayed, I remembered this passage from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy: “When an accident happens, you think or exclaim, ‘I am hurt!’ Your thought is more powerful than your words, more powerful than the accident itself, to make the injury real.
