Sickness is an illusion, to be annihilated by Science.

What we most need is the prayer of fervent desire for growth in grace, expressed in patience, meekness, love, and good deeds.

Under affliction in the very depths, stop and contemplate what you have to be grateful for.

Hold thought steadfastly to the enduring, the good, and the true, and you will bring these into your experience proportionately to their occupancy of your thoughts.

Remember, thou canst be brought into no condition, be it ever so severe, where Love has not been before thee and where its tender lesson is not awaiting thee. Therefore despair not nor murmur, for that which seeketh to save, to heal, and to deliver, will guide thee, if thou seekest this guidance.

Experience teaches us that we do not always receive the blessings we ask for in prayer.

Spirit is the real and eternal; matter is the unreal and temporal.
