Stomach pain healed
I am learning, day by day, to appreciate the profound power of prayer to transform thought and heal the ills of the body.
Several years ago, I began to experience occasional stomach pain, which would sometimes incapacitate me for hours at a time, limiting my normal activity. Having had many healings through Christian Science treatment, I was certain that prayer was the best and only path to finding not just relief but a permanent cessation of these attacks.
One morning, I could feel the onset of the pain and turned to that week’s Bible Lesson from the Christian Science Quarterly for inspiration. I knew it would help lift my thought above the pain so I could discern my true selfhood as God’s creation, which includes no inharmony. But the pain was so intense that I could not concentrate on the message of the Lesson.
