Words are inadequate indeed in expressing what Christian Science means to me. When my twin children were five years of age and their sister a little older, I was faced with the responsibility of having to bring them up alone. Since I had had no special business training, supporting them seemed an impossibility.

Although my parents were Christian Scientists and I had attended a Christian Science Sunday School from early childhood, I was afraid of the future, troubled, and fearful that my children would not have the opportunities of a complete education. I was so full of fear that I decided to visit a practitioner in the little town where we were living at that time.

The practitioner asked me to say each morning upon awakening the first statement in the Preface to "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy (p. vii), "To those leaning on the sustaining infinite, to-day is big with blessings." I promised to do so and came away uplifted and joyous in the conviction that all things are possible to God. I was completely healed of disappointment and fear of the future in this one treatment. By listening to the still, small voice, I was divinely directed to Florida from my mother's home in the North and into a business, native to the state, which has blessed all of us for many years. The opportunity to go to college opened up for the children who wanted to go.
