Testimonies of Healing
With thankfulness to God, and gratitude to our dear Leader, Mrs. Eddy, I send this testimony of the healing of my little girl.
In thankfulness to God, and gratitude to Mrs. Eddy for all the benefits I have received since learning of Christian Science, I offer my testimony.
It is with great pleasure that I write this testimony to express my thankfulness to God, and my gratitude to Mrs. Eddy for the good I have found in Christian Science.
I will no longer withhold my testimony of what Christian Science has done for me. It has been nearly fifteen years since I have used any material remedies, and for the peace and comfort which have been mine, when the way seemed dark as well as in time of sunshine, I am truly grateful.
Before I heard of Christian Science I had suffered from extreme nervousness for twenty years, roughly speaking. I am a professional musician, and public performance caused me such mental and physical torture that at one time I contemplated ending my life, and should probably have done so if I had had the courage.
For some time I have been thinking that I ought to send my mite for publication. We all have many things for which to be thankful, but are oftentimes loath to express our thanks for fear they may not be worded as they should be.
In loving gratitude for the awakening to newness of life which Christian Science has brought to me, I send this testimony as a faint indication of thankfulness for blessings received, for very often our deepest healings must go unvoiced. Only the heart itself knows what hidden springs have been released, what purgings and purifyings have been effected within, by this searchlight of Truth, laying bare waste places often unknown to ourselves.
In April, 1910, Christian Science came to me, and with a heart full of gratitude I will tell what it has done for me. During nine years I had been in a condition of weakness, as if weights were laid on my shoulders, and all exercise fatigued me.
I have had a wonderful demonstration in Christian Science, and it has proved to me beyond a doubt that God is All-in-all. For five years I had a nervous disease, according to materia medica, which manifested itself on my hands.
The testimonies of the healing power of Truth have been so helpful to me that I desire to tell others of my thankfulness to God for the wonderful healing which came to me through Christian Science. Twelve years ago I barely recovered from an acute attack of illness which left a chronic stomach trouble that doctors were unable to relieve.
