My first healing
My name is Charlotte. I’m six years old, and I’m in first grade.
I go to Christian Science Sunday School. In Sunday School, I like to listen and hear about how God is good. I like to see that God is everywhere. God can’t go anywhere without us, and we can’t go anywhere without God.
One day, when I was eating lunch at school, my tummy didn’t feel well. Then I thought about how God is always with me. God wouldn’t let a tummy hurt because God is good. Then I felt good. I was healed and ate my lunch.
This was my first healing—just God and me. I’m grateful that God is always with me.
