For children

"Sing it again, Mom"

Mike loves to sit on Mom's lap and sing with her. His favorite song is by Mary Baker Eddy. It begins, "Shepherd, show me how to go...." Christian Science Hymnal, No. 304. Mom and Mike have a special rocking chair they sit in to sing together.

One day Mike's nursery school teacher told Mom to watch Mike. Other children were sick, Miss Robin said.

Mom thought to herself, "Mike really is God's perfect child. God does not make him sick. Mike reflects God, so he can't be sick and neither can the other children. Miss Robin loves Mike and wants only good things for him." Mom prayed to see clearly that everyone in the class was truly God's perfect child. So nothing bad could come to Mike or the other children.
