Warts healed
When my son was in high school, he told me one of his feet was painful when he was practicing routines for the marching band. He showed me the bottom of this foot, and I saw that there were several small warts on the toes and two larger ones on the ball of the foot.
Bill was about sixteen, and I thought he was old enough to decide what treatment to pursue. We discussed his options—to go to a medical physician or to have Christian Science treatment through prayer. He decided to have treatment through prayer.
We agreed that this choice did not mean ignoring the warts and hoping for a good outcome. It meant praying as he had been taught in his Christian Science Sunday School class. There he had learned that God is Love and does not create anything that could harm him or cause pain or discomfort.
