In the Christian Science Bible Lesson

Prayer is in the listening 

Prayer that begins with words helps to clear the way for us to hear and feel the deeper, resonant voice of God.

A healing of my own 

This camp counselor hadn’t had many healings of his own when he injured himself at camp. But even though the injury didn’t seem like a big deal, he realized this was still an opportunity to pray.
I couldn’t feel or even see where the bee had stung me. The mark was totally gone.
I was being called to adopt an attitude that included both a willingness to give generously and a trust that my daily needs would be met.

Milestones, not millstones 

Being able to walk—and leap—free of pain after a challenging injury is a milestone that I have turned to many times when difficulties have arisen, in gratitude for God’s goodness.

Being a lie detector 

Relief came when I detected the lie and remained firmly, vehemently rooted in what I knew was true. Within an hour all pain had left my hand.

Tears of Gethsemane 

Sincere and humble prayer opens the way toward healing inspiration.

Sailing with strength 

On a windy day, this teen found herself dumped into the ocean when her sailboat capsized. She’d never been able to right a boat by herself before. What would make the difference this time?
Prayer gave us confidence that God’s great love would protect my daughter, and the other girls, too.

Safe at school 

Every school and child is embraced and protected in God’s kingdom, the “peaceable habitation” described in the book of Isaiah in the Bible.

Saved in a blizzard
