Testimonies of Healing

GROWING UP as a Christian Scientist, I learned that God, our true Father and Mother, created me and that I include only what He gives. Science and Health explains that we each reflect all aspects of His/Her nature.

THE WONDERFUL THING about a Christian Science healing is that it leaves you not only well, but with some new insight or understanding about your relationship with God. And often, that's the most memorable part of the healing.

WHEN MY HUSBAND AND I were expecting our first baby, we found a wonderful doctor to attend the birth. Fairly early on in the pregnancy we met with him and talked frankly for about an hour and a half.

I WAS RAISED IN A HOME where we relied on Christian Science treatment to heal our problems. Our parents took us to the Christian Science Sunday School where I learned about the all-loving God, who is Love itself.

I STARTED SMOKING as a teenager. After about 15 years, I wanted to be free of cigarettes.

SOME YEARS AGO, I was living in Berlin and had to take the subway almost daily. At one point there were posters all over the subway stations and inside the cars calling attention to a spreading flu epidemic.

I HAD MADE what I thought would be a routine visit to the Registry of Motor Vehicles to renew my driver's license, as I'd done since I got my first license in 1934. Only this time, I didn't pass my eye exam, and I would now need to wear glasses while driving.

NEARLY 20 YEARS AGO, I discovered a lump in my breast. Terrified that it might be cancer, I quickly turned to God for help.

I WOULD LIKE TO ADD MY VOICE, along with my wife's, in testimony to God's great goodness and care for His children. It was gratifying to be a witness and a participant in the healings described by my wife.

IN 1973, I was suddenly taken ill with pneumonia and hospitalized. After I spent a week in the hospital, the doctor sent me home with medication and, after several weeks, I finally regained my health.
