By Whitney Boggs - Christian Science Sentinel, February 27, 2006
Last year, I moved out of my family’s home and into a college dorm so I could live on my own and experience college life. The transition was difficult because I was close to my family, and I wasn’t used to sharing a room with anyone.
As a Christian Scientist, my first response to a problem—whether it’s physical or emotional—is to turn to God. I’ve learned I can trust His infinite goodness to provide me with comfort and guidance in any situation. Prayer helps me see the true nature of an individual as spiritual, and this truth heals. So freshman year, when an uncomfortable situation arose with my roommate, I knew prayer would reveal the right solution.
