A firm stand for Truth brings rapid healing
It was January and a Sunday morning—the last Sunday of my three-year term as Second Reader, helping conduct services at my local Church of Christ, Scientist. I awoke feeling ill with cold symptoms.
My first thought was “Oh, no! This is not happening. I’m just not tolerating this for one moment!” It wasn’t a willful thought or an attempt to ignore the symptoms, but a recognition of the spiritual reality that God is caring for His children at all times. I prayed to know that I could not be deprived of the joy of being a witness to and messenger of Christ in my role of reading to the congregation portions of that week’s beautiful Bible Lesson-Sermon found in the Christian Science Quarterly.
