How are you educating yourself?

Recently I was reminded of a healing that felt big to me. 

One evening while I was in college, all the joints in my body began to hurt when I put pressure on them. It was painful to get up and to sit or lie down, and I couldn’t sleep. I tried calling both the Christian Science practitioner I usually worked with and my dad for prayerful support, but I couldn’t get hold of either of them. This left me feeling very alone. 

As I was frantically trying to figure out how to get rid of the pain, a question that my dad had recently asked me came to mind: “How much time are you spending ‘educating’ yourself about the material, physical senses, and how much time are you spending ‘educating’ yourself about spiritual sense?”
