Testimonies of Healing

It is with a sense of deep gratitude that I wish to tell of the rich blessings which have been mine through Christian Science. For seven years I suffered greatly with a severe abdominal complaint, to which, as often seems to occur in such cases, a nervous trouble was added.

Having received so much benefit from Christian Science, I am impelled to give this testimony, hoping that my experience may be beneficial to some one else. At the time my second child was born the mental atmosphere was peaceful and harmonious, and the physical suffering was nothing compared with that of a former experience.

Like the woman who touched the hem of Jesus' garment and was healed, the first touch of the truth in Christian Science brought healing to me. I had been a wretched invalid for seven years, suffering from spinal disease, female weakness, stomach trouble, extreme nervousness, and an intense fear of insanity.

I give this testimony to the efficacy of Christian Science in the sincere hope that some one else may be helped out of the unutterable misery and hopelessness of a belief of life in matter into the light of Christian Science. Through doubt and fear, and wrong beliefs about God, man, and the universe, I came to a point where I could not believe there was a God, where death seemed the only hope of release from an existence which had become unbearable.

I deem it a great privilege to testify through the Journal to the blessings I have received in Christian Science. Four years ago my wife, who had not known a well day in twenty years, was taken seriously ill, and it seemed as though some extra effort would have to be made to avoid a fatal ending.

I feel it a duty as well as a pleasure to tell what Christian Science has done in our home. When our second boy was two years old, he swallowed what the doctors called a deadly poison.

FOR fifteen years I have not. taken any medicine, but have depended upon divine power for my healing.

I am truly grateful for what Christian Science has done for me. In August, 1910, 1 was a physical wreck, for I had a nervous breakdown which caused me to be almost distracted at times.

About nine years ago I was attacked with a severe stomach trouble, which became alarming. My husband called a doctor, but told him not to bring any medicine.

I feel, that the time has come for me to give expression to my wonderful healing in Christian Science, and readers will know that I have much to be thankful for. For twenty years my eyes were in a very bad condition, although I had many specialists treat them; but they grew worse all the time.
