We do not remember days ... we remember moments.

The Faith of a Child

Dr. Wayne Dyer is known worldwide for his inspirational books, audio programs, and personal appearances.  His message is always one of hope and believing in yourself and having faith in that universal source of all good ... God.

The following is a very personal story Dr. Dyer relates that concerns one of his daughters who'd had a condition called flat warts since she was two and a half years old:

"These flat warts were on her face and by the age of seven they were getting worse, even though different doctors had said she would outgrow them and they would go away in a few months.

"While visiting a friend of mine who was a dermatologist I asked him to look at my daughter.  He examined her under big lights and said, 'You've got flat warts.'  My daughter hated that term and told him so.  She said she preferred to call them her 'bumps'.

" 'Well,' he said, 'the good news is that when you get married you won't have them, but I don't know when they will go away.  I can't burn them off because it could burn your face.  And, unfortunately, there is no medicine I can give you for them.  But, you have the ability within yourself to be rid of them.

" 'If you can call upon that healing capacity within you and begin to talk to these bumps in a way in which you ask them to leave, you have a much greater chance of getting rid of them faster than anything I could give you.'

"That night I went into my daughter's room and she was under the covers with a flashlight.  I went over and lifted up the blanket and asked her if everything was all right.

" 'Shhh!  I'm talking to my bumps,' she told me.  The next night and the third night the same thing happened.

"The conversation with my friend, the dermatologist, had taken place on a Monday and by the following Friday every one of my daughter's bumps had disappeared and never came back."
