Testimony of Healing

Healing of “biting ant” wounds

Ben Beattie-Hood

As I prayed, I thought about the David and Goliath idea from my morning walk: that God’s spiritual man couldn’t go down to battle with matter. This spiritual light broke through the dark claims of a limited, material view. 
Testimony of Healing

Boil and inflammation gone

Angela Bhagwan

As I persisted in turning to God, I began to pray with the understanding that it is divine Mind, God, that governs, and since Mind is the only cause, there is no other cause.

Grateful for God’s presence

Healed after headfirst fall

I thought of Mary Baker Eddy’s definition of “the proof of healing” as “a sweet and certain sense that God is Love” (Science and Health, p. 569). I really felt that sweet and certain sense of the presence of Love with me.
