How can I pray?

“A table in the wilderness” by Judith Hedrick (Sentinel, February 13, 2023) was the perfect answer to my question, How can I pray? following the February 15 article in The Christian Science Monitor about the heartbreaking conditions facing thousands of children in Syria and Turkey after the February 6 earthquake. As the author says, “Christ comes to us to destroy the human sense of lack or evil and to reveal the ever-presence of God, good, here and now.” Thank you!

Ideas for prayer

Thank you so much for items in the section “A healing response to a world in need” on JSH-Online.com. I will add the ideas found there to my prayers for Syrian and Turkish families. What healing and blessing offerings these are for the world.

Never alone

[Sushma Sharma, “Healed of loneliness,” Sentinel, February 20, 2023]

I loved this testimony, which explains how loneliness can be healed in Christian Science. It is clear that when we have God in our lives, we are never alone. A wonderful piece.
