In the Christian Science Bible Lesson

This counselor-in-training should have been looking forward to the adventures of white-water rafting during a high-water year. Instead, she felt stuck in a fog of fear. But as she turned to the Bible and Science and Health, she found answers that helped both her and her rafting buddies.
At that moment, just before the election, what was ailing me most was the notion that I was living in a post-Truth world—a world where the God I had come to know as infinitely good couldn’t be trusted, a world where I couldn’t trust others, a world that seemed to be drowning in a sea of mistrust and fear.
I started praying, and the thought that came to me was a camp song.
Who knew that removing self-justification from my thought would have such a huge impact?

Confident prayer

I understood that I could be confident that the spiritual ideas I’d been cherishing in prayer were real and true because they were the Word of God, the divine Science (or practical knowledge) of God and His spiritual creation. 
I am filled with untold gratitude and am in awe of Mrs. Eddy’s obedience to God in fulfilling Jesus’ command to preach the gospel and heal the sick.
A day kayaking on the Arkansas River sounded like the perfect adventure to this teen . . . until she began to feel intimidated by fearful thoughts about everything that could go wrong. That’s when a spiritual insight helped her move from fear to confidence.

No more COVID symptoms

I quickly realized that I had been unconsciously “influenced erroneously” by nothing more than a random, erroneous thought of disease, and at that very moment the threat lost all its power to scare me.

Shoulder injury healed

I affirmed that God, who governs all in complete harmony, wouldn’t and couldn’t cause or allow a mishap.

The “Daily Prayer” won the day!

I prayed with a deep desire to grow in grace. 

Healing the past

When we view life from a spiritual perspective, we will no longer feel compelled to ruminate over painful or wistful memories, nor let them define or limit us. Instead, we will rejoice in and embrace the wondrous ways in which God leads us forward.
I felt that divine Love had guided me each step of the way, and therefore I could not be left out of any work that was mine to do.
