Fear is the source of all problems. At least most of my challenges have been rooted in fear.
When I am stressed out about upcoming tests, papers, midterms, and finals, I first address my fear of failing, of not articulating my thoughts clearly on paper, and of nervousness on the big day. Every time I have prayerfully handled the fear, I have been able to move with grit and grace throughout the respective experience.

Never in my life had I ever had such a clear understanding of myself, my relation to God, and what Christian Science means to me. And it all stemmed from a simple, yet profound, instantaneous healing.
I was at home one evening. After eating dinner, I was suddenly overcome with illness, exhaustion, and fear all at once. I lay down on my bed and did the only thing I knew how to do in a situation like this—I prayed. After only a few moments of silence, a hymn from the Christian Science Hymnal popped into my head.
