It was my overwhelming joy to enter into my full practice of Christian Science last year. Having tasted the sweetness all along of healing myself and others, I knew that practice work will give me an opportunity each day, in bringing Christ to others, to bear witness as a healer to the power of Christian Science. As a practitioner, I needed to live and give to the global world.
I got a call one morning from a person I have known for a long time, having been a staunch Christian Scientist. She needed me to take her case. I felt a sigh of fear, not feeling whether I am the right person for her case. I hesitated a bit but she highly insisted and I had to give in lovingly. The result was awesome and I felt more confident on my work. I knew it wasn’t me, but God glorifying Himself in me. As the Psalmist says, “It is God that girdeth me with strength and maketh my way perfect”.
Another moment came; I got a call from a client who needed healing of a prolonged ailment. She has had Christian Science treatment before from another practitioner but the healing wasn’t accomplished. After that, the same deeper feeling of fear tried to overwhelm me. This time, I knew I had no chance to give in to it. I can’t be a naïve practitioner. I knew the law of God is at work and exposing error of all sorts. Deeply and quietly I prayed to see God’s power in expression. And with no hesitation I was ready and grounded for the work.
From then on, I always feel ready to say, “Send me Lord.” I know my life is destined for good, God’s good. And as our Leader says “The devotion of thought to an honest achievement makes the achievement possible.”
