“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble” (Psalms 46:1). I so appreciate the truth of these words from the Bible.

Before becoming acquainted with Christian Science, I was in great distress because of back problems that prevented me from sleeping and moving normally. I was suffering day and night. 

After an MRI, the doctors diagnosed the problem as herniated discs and a large inflammation in my lower back. I went to many physiotherapy sessions, to no avail. No one suggested I undergo surgery because the biggest problem was the inflammation. But even after anti-inflammatory injections, nothing changed. None of the specialists I consulted foresaw a promising future for me. I felt demoralized.
