Beginning
on page 158, we have the recounting of a healing of an eating disorder which
involved a young girl’s extraordinary loss of weight. It is told by the girl’s mother. This
arresting statement stood out to me: “So I continued to pray, recognizing that
our daughter was actually God’s child – always perfect, pure, and free from any
evil influence” (my emphasis). How good to see this truth
pointed out. And how clearly we are shown the mesmeric effect this error
claims to affect, when we read of the breakthrough on page 159: “Suddenly one
morning, our daughter woke to discover that her face and body were returning to
normal. She was also herself mentally and said she felt as if she had
awakened from a dream. She was happy and free for the first time in a
year.”
