Testimonies of Healing

My parents took up the study of Christian Science...

From the May 1966 issue of The Christian Science Journal


My parents took up the study of Christian Science during my infancy, and so I attended the Christian Science Sunday School. Before leaving Sunday School I became a member of The Mother Church and six months later joined a branch church. Still later came class instruction.

Some years ago a condition which I first noticed when it began to hamper my diving developed in my knees until they were both giving me pain day and night, so I decided to call a practitioner. While I was carrying some material weighing nearly one hundred pounds, one knee bent backward with a sharp crack.

Still standing, if somewhat uncertainly, with the material in my hand, I prayed fervently, and it became clear that God is I am. In a few moments the sharp pain was gone, and I was able to move. This instant partial victory so heartened me that I decided to persevere in my prayerful work alone.
