Healed through Church—at home
Recently, while playing with my young son, I accidentally got hit twice in the throat. In addition to the immediate pain, I had trouble breathing and felt an uncomfortable sensation in my windpipe.
I was able to just sit still and, as it was a Wednesday evening, call in to the online testimony meeting offered by my local Church of Christ, Scientist. I had a strong, clear sense that I would be healed by the power of Church.
Well, it was a lovely service, but when it was over, I was sad to realize that I was still in pain. I turned to God in prayer and asked what to do next. I immediately felt a calm, comforting divine presence, and a clear thought came to me: “Church isn’t over.”
