Mobility pain gone

Roger Whiteway

After returning home from attending a family event in another state, I began to experience waves of pain in my right leg and foot while standing or walking. Confident that the condition would pass on its own, I continued my normal activities of masters swimming workouts, cycling, and walking the dog several miles a day.

However, the pain and strange feeling in my leg and foot continued. From my study and practice of Christian Science, I knew that I could realize Christ Jesus’ promise “The kingdom of God is within you” (Luke 17:21). I also knew that God is the only Life and that my identity and individuality are an expression of the divine One. This pain was an affront to the truth of my uninterrupted God-given mobility, a false belief imposed on my consciousness, and an extension of the belief that I live in a mortal body that is subject to decline. To reverse this damning belief, I gave myself Christian Science prayerful treatment. 

One of the most aggressive beliefs that had to be reversed was that my body was wearing out after all my years of being active in athletics of all sorts and that I might have to live with this condition permanently.
