One Wednesday morning on...

Jean Good

One Wednesday morning on arising, I found that I could not walk straight. I studied the Bible and Mrs. Eddy's works, along with our periodicals, all day, but when it was time to go to the testimony meeting at church I still felt wobbly. However, knowing that it was right for me to attend the meeting, I went to church. I could hardly walk into church, but so much love was expressed by the ushers that I was able to make my way to a seat beside someone I knew to be a practitioner, and I asked for help.

Her treatment that night quieted me and enabled me to sleep a few hours, but then I awoke feeling miserable. My body was shaking, but I knew that was fear; so I studied earnestly, and in about three or four hours I was able to sleep. I think there was in my thought a little fear of the false belief that there is a time when one must pass on, because I am in what is called the elderly group.

When I arose the next morning I still had the wobbly feeling, which made me feel listless and inadequate. I felt I had to go to a meeting of the literature distribution committee, but when I arrived, one of the other women on the committee had to help me into the church. The chairman's loving greeting helped me to feel I could do my share of the work, and I did it, after spending a few minutes in further study.

After our meeting I went straight to the practitioner's office; she gave me such a wonderful treatment that I walked out of the office healed. The thought that perfect balance is a quality of God was what I needed. Since then I have been thinking a great deal about balance, and I know that I was not balancing my time rightly—I was watching too many television mysteries!

I should like to add that when I first entered the practitioner's office, I said, "I don't know whether it is my stomach, my heart, or my head."

She said, "We do not have to look for a cause, do we?"

That was the beginning of the healing.

How grateful I am for these consecrated persons who are willing to give their full time to draw nearer to God so that they may heal others when called upon!— (Mrs.) Jean Good, Escondido, California.
