A true view of Ego brings healing

God never mandated sickness for His image and likeness. 

Who has an ego problem? This question came to mind some months ago.

In praying about this, I knew that Truth, God, was on my side. As a student of Christian Science, I knew so well man’s exemption from such claims. God had never mandated sickness for His image and likeness, and I could not be fooled into feeling the effects of what was simply an unreal suggestion coming to thought. 

I had failed to see all of humanity embraced in the same atmosphere of Soul.
