A personal healing will ever be the most convincing
evidence of the healing power of the subconscious mind. Over
forty years ago I resolved a malignancy of the skin through
prayer. Medical therapy had failed to check the growth, and it was getting progressively worse. A clergyman, with a deep
psychological knowledge, explained to me the inner meaning
of the 139th Psalm wherein it says, In thy book all my members

the above simple prayer. In about three months my skin was
whole and perfect
As you can see, all I did was give life-giving patterns of
wholeness, beauty, and perfection to my subconscious mind,
thereby obliterating the negative images and patterns of
