Turning off the “mortal static”

There was extreme pain and I couldn’t seem to eat. I felt so grateful for the work of a practitioner, because I was having a hard time focusing and praying for myself.

Then one morning in the wee hours, this angel message came: Turn off the video. It’s just “mortal static,” nothing more. And almost immediately Hymn 51, “Eternal Mind, the Potter is,” came to mind. The words of the hymn filled me with peace. All the “mortal static,” or mental interference, stopped.

Then Mary Baker Eddy’s hymn “O’er waiting harp strings” came to thought. I prayed with these two hymns for a couple of hours, basking in their meaning. The “mortal static” was gone, thought was filled naturally with what was true and always had been true.

I was sure that I was in good hands, God’s hands. Now I was able to pray for myself. Complete healing came soon after.
