Testimonies of Healing

I took Christian Science class...

From the March 1992 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I took Christian Science class instruction just prior to entering active military service. This spiritually scientific instruction on how to apply understandingly the truths of God and man, as contained in the Bible and Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, proved to be extremely helpful to me during military training and combat. In an earlier testimony in the Christian Science Sentinel, I told an Army experience about my company's protection while under enemy fire and our safekeeping while aboard an LST (landing ship tank) in a typhoon.

During three years of active military duty, I only had one day of illness. This occurred while I was on occupation duty in Korea. On the day that I felt feverish and unwell, I remembered these words in Science and Health: "When the first symptoms of disease appear, dispute the testimony of the material senses with divine Science." I prayed continually. In less than a day, all symptoms of the illness vanished. The quickness of this healing made my having to report to an Army hospital unnecessary.

When I left the military and returned to my university studies, I quickly found how practical it was to apply the truths of Christian Science to the challenges of higher education.
