Testimonies of Healing
I Recently heard of a demonstration which interested me, and I would like to give it. A man who is a Christian Scientist is employed in a factory where machinery is used.
I wish to contribute a few lines to the Journal, to let its many readers know what Christian Science has done for me and my wife. We commenced looking into Science about four years ago.
By Christian Science I was instantaneously healed of stomach trouble from which I had suffered a number of years. I tried every material remedy that offered me any hope of relief, but failed to receive the desired results.
I would like to tell you of a demonstration which I had a year ago. I was very sick and the doctor said I had rheumatism of the heart, and told mamma I must not go to school or run and play.
I have never been so awakened to work more earnestly more consecratedly, for the Cause of Christian Science than I was this summer while attending the Communion service in the Mother Church. Our dear Leader's message is so comprehensive, that I am still studying it daily, and feel enriched by it each time.
Some time since I was asked to go to see a woman who needed help in Christian Science. She lived in a remote part of our city, a part with which I was unfamiliar and a very rough neighborhood.
Sincere gratitude impels me to write these lines in order that I may tell of some of the benefits which I have received through Christian Science. About three and a half years ago I was brought into this beautiful Truth, by being healed of a claim of two and one half years' standing, an illness which made my whole existence a misery and life scarcely worth living.
In just acknowledgment of what Christian Science has done for me, I submit the following for publication. I was healed of nervous prostration, catarrh of the stomach, and various other ills of several years standing.
It is now a little over six years since Christian Science was first brought to my notice by a kind friend who had been healed by it. I had been under the care of one of the best homoeopathic physicians in our city for two months, but was not benefited, rather growing worse.
