Healing on a hiking trip
Originally published in German
My dad and I went hiking in the Alps this past summer. It was an intense two-week trip with difficult terrain.
One day, while we were hiking down a steep mountain, I twisted my knee badly. At first, I didn’t feel much of anything, but as the day went on, I felt a sharp pain. I felt scared. I was worried that this would end our trip prematurely and would keep me from playing sports I enjoy.
I knew these fears weren’t helping me, so I turned to something that would: the weekly Bible Lesson found in the Christian Science Quarterly. I had it on my phone, and I love to highlight my favorite parts. It came in handy, as I was searching for some spiritual inspiration.
