Healed of loneliness

A colleague at work introduced me to Christian Science in 2010 when I was struggling with job challenges. After that, I started regularly attending Sunday church services and Wednesday testimony meetings at a Christian Science Society, and I had many healings through my study of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. I also had healing experiences with the prayerful help of a Christian Science practitioner, and I want to share one of them.

From my childhood, I had the habit of sharing daily activities with my mother. In 2010, I moved 130 kilometers from my village to a new city for a job. It was the first time I had been far away from my parents and home. I was one of several paying guests in an apartment (known as a PG) in Chandigarh. Every evening when I came back from work, I would call my parents on the phone and talk about my day. If I could not talk some days because I’d been working late or for any other reason, I felt lonely and sad.
