Excerpt
"What does a day beginning with God look like? How many people think of God before they begin the day? Does keeping Him uppermost in thought impact one's day? These are some of the questions that will be answered in this chapter.
Prayer is a direct communication with God. Should this communication be wordy or simplistic? It is not the number of words or the type of words that make prayer effective; it is the spirit accompanying those words.
When my daughter was eighteen years old and found herself turning over and over in her car, she screamed three simple words: GOD IS LIFE!
Having been a student in a Christian Science Sunday School for many years, she understood what it meant to claim God as her life. Even though my daughter had lost consciousness, she remembered the words by those who stopped to hear her. "Is she dead? She looks like it. She is so still."
As the darkness settled over her, she fought mentally to open her eyes and speak. Recognizing emphatically that God is Life helped her regain consciousness"

Purchased for a Friend
By Shirley Slaughter
I have a friend who was diagnosed with lung cancer. I referred her to a doctor but felt like I needed to do something else for her. So I bought this book because I already read one of the author's books and loved it. When my friend opened it up she called me because she was so happy to get it. She was looking for something to help her deal with her illness. She told me she will tell me how it worked out after she finishes reading it.
Kirkus Reviews Medicine: A Daily Dose of Spirituality
This introduction to the essentials of Christian Science offers solace through simplification of concept of
"disease."
Smith, described on the book's back cover as "an avid social media writer, inspirational speaker, teacher,
and business woman," wrote this brief book in order to help alleviate suffering among readers coping with the
loss of a loved one. Whether or not this book would be in any measure effective in meeting that worthy objective
is contingent on what is left unmentioned on the book's covers--Smith is a devout Christian Scientist and sees
health and illness absolutely through that religion's perspective. Only a few small portions of the text detour
from the overarching theme of Christian Science in order to share some memories of her fundamentalist Baptist
upbringing that she currently views as error-prone. There are also a few asides suggesting that the world in
general, and the U.S. in particular, are in terrible straits economically and politically, though even those
insights are offered with the implication that Christian Science practiced could likely ameliorate these problems.
Of greatest poignancy--and perhaps the sole reason for a reader uninterested in Christian Science to read this--are
the expressions of grief Smith articulates regarding her daughter who died as a consequence of breast cancer.
Smith's grief assumes form in a moving tribute in poetry and a thoughtful meditation in prose. It is left to the
reader whether to read Smith's assertions that cancer is a "dream," and that her daughter had "disastrous medical
surgery" that Smith might imply sped her daughter's loss, as denials or spiritual insights. Read more ›
