Healing of COVID

In January 2021, I came down with what seemed like cold symptoms and stayed home from work for a couple of days. Before I could return to work, I was required to be tested for COVID-19. The result was positive, so my husband and I followed our local health department guidelines and isolated at home. 

I studied the Bible Lesson from the Christian Science Quarterly and prayed for myself over the next few days, but the symptoms worsened. One morning my husband heard me calling out. I was in distress and struggling to stay conscious. He came to help me and then called a Christian Science practitioner to pray for me. 

I slept for a few hours and then spoke with the practitioner myself. She reminded me of a statement in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy: “There is no power apart from God” (p. 228). She also assured me that there was no power working against me and that God’s power was working for me. She affirmed that I was the perpetual manifestation of Life, God, and that the invariable fact was that I was spiritual and the expression of God. I felt better and no longer in distress. I felt safe.
