The stories you’re about to read really happened. In each case, the boy or girl found out what prayer does – it brings peace, safety, direction, and healing. You’ll read about Pipe r’s bus ride on a snowy day, when the roads were slippery. Piper tells you how she prayed to God and felt safe – and everyone got home OK. Marshall shares his healing of a stomachache before he was to play in a hockey tournament. And Kathleen’s story about how her younger brother and sister stopped fighting will remind you of the Bible story of David and Goliath. Finally, Darren talks about having got caught stealing – and then learning a lesson about what it means to be honest. These articles tell “what prayer does,” and refer to a book called Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. This book is written by Mary Baker Eddy, who is the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science. Children and adults can read this book together with the Bible, and learn more about God and His tender care for all His creation. Show more
