In the Christian Science Bible Lesson

This teen was having fun on a service trip when pain in one of her ears threatened to ruin everything. Then, an article from the Sentinel came to her rescue.
I had publicly stated my commitment to Christian Science and my desire to be healed through its study and practice. This was a big step for me.
This experience wasn’t about attempting to fix my friend. It was an opportunity to understand and demonstrate Christian Science healing more fully and to share with my friends something that’s very special to me.
Instead of seeing myself as a participant in a material history, I needed to accept the true, spiritual view of myself as part of God’s ever-current reality of harmony and peace.

The safe haven of faith

The trees were full of white blossoms, so much so that, from our viewpoint at least, they looked snow-covered.
As I felt the truth of God’s all-inclusive love, the pain and disease lessened until they ultimately disappeared. I was free!
I had been given an IQ test, and the results had indicated that I would always be slow to learn and have trouble in school. But thanks to Christian Science, that was not the case.

Everyone prayed!

The many names for God helped us each pray in our own way to feel comforted.

Freedom from heredity

The true understanding of creation eliminates all beliefs of heredity.
In truth, the body is never out of control. It manifests whatever state of thought is governing it.
Rejoicing in God’s power also helps us discern when we’re getting pulled into making a god of human power by seeing someone as either a personal savior to adulate or a personal devil to fear and loathe. 
Making the effort to understand spiritual reality and our unbreakable relationship to God brings good to all of the other endeavors of life.
