"As I held fast to the absolute truths…the challenge seemed to simply vanish.”

I had been experiencing some recurring pain in my lower body which had made it difficult to do even simple tasks (such as pulling on socks or boots).  I also found it challenging to get in and out of our car (which I need to do on a regular basis as I go about my daily activities).   As I held fast to the absolute truths set forth in the Creation chapter, and continued my daily study of the Bible Lesson, as well as reading current Sentinel and Journal articles, this “challenge” seemed to simply "vanish".

A citation in the Bible Lesson (on Reality) provides an uplifting explanation for this: “The physical healing of Christian Science results now, as in Jesus’ time, from the operation of divine Principle, before which sin and disease lose their reality in human consciousness and disappear as naturally and as necessarily as darkness gives place to light and sin to reformation.  Now, as then, these might works are not supernatural, but supremely natural.” (SH xi:9-15) I have since been able to do all that is required to keep our home running smoothly plus recently participated in a (first-for-me) spin class (which meant spending time with my sister) and had a lot of fun tobogganing with our son while on holiday recently.
