I prayed in math class

One day, I was taking a math test at school. It was hard for me to understand one of the questions. I sat there, confused, and looked around the room, back at my computer, and then at my teacher. 

My teacher came over to my desk. He asked if it would be helpful if he read the math question out loud to help me understand it in a different way. He read the question and then asked me, “What are they asking here?” and, “What do you think?”

Math was usually a struggle for me. But I knew from Christian Science Sunday School that another name for God is Mind. God is intelligence, and the Bible tells me that I reflect God. So I listened for a good thought from God to know how to answer.
