Testimonies of Healing

It has been several years since I first began to understand...

From the July 1904 issue of The Christian Science Journal


It has been several years since I first began to understand and demonstrate the teachings of Christian Science, and each year my gratitude increases, for having found the truth about God and man, and that this truth can be proved, that it is applicable to all my needs—moral, mental, physical, and spiritual. My needs have been many, and many times I have been almost overwhelmed with error's suggestions and physical manifestations; but God's word has been all-powerful to destroy them, and has proved to me that these evils are nothing. I would oftentimes have fainted by the wayside, but I held on to the proofs I had had, and kept declaring and knowing that if God's word is all-powerful at one time, it must be at all times.

Fear and doubt have always been with me, causing me untold misery, but the truth about God and myself is freeing me more and more every day from these evils and their mental and physical effects. In myself and others I have seen evil thoughts and habits, and many different diseases disappear under the influence of God's word as revealed in Christian Science.

One of my children was playing blacksmith and had heated an iron rod over an inch thick to almost red heat. In taking it from the fire to hammer it, he lost his hold upon it and instead of letting it fall upon his shoes, he instinctively reached for it and grasped the heated end.
