Testimonies of Healing
It is with a feeling of love and gratitude to God that I wish to add my testimony to the many given in the Journal , for they have been very helpful to me. Christian Science has been our only remedy for over three years, and has healed the members of our family of various ills.
To show my gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me, and possibly to be a benefit to some one who is wandering in the shadows of despair, and who needs the "great Physician," I send this testimony, in proof of God's care of those who trust Him. For fifty years I suffered from a stomach ailment, with accompanying ills, such as serious heart trouble, frequent and violent headaches, lasting always twenty-four hours and often longer; also rectal and bowel trouble for which I took medicine daily for several years, until it was pronounced incurable, and I was assured that I could never get more than temporary relief.
I am very thankful for Christian Science and would like to express my gratitude in a recent demonstration over a fall. In going into a room I slipped on the polished floor and in falling injured my hand.
This healing truth, known as Christian Science, came to me in the darkest hour of my life, when the last vestige of hope had departed. The most approved medical methods had been tried and had failed, so I stood alone in discouragement, almost in despair, held down by the constant fear of a so-called hereditary disease.
Words cannot express my gratitude for the blessings that have come to me through Christian Science. My aunt was healed after suffering ten years from what doctors called a fibrous growth.
For a long time I have wished to give expression to my gratitude for all that the study of Christian Science has brought to me. As a child I suffered from a catarrhal affection of the head and throat, also from severe earaches and attacks of lung trouble.
I wish to express publicly my gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me. When I started to attend the Christian Science services, a little over three years ago, I was a strong believer in medicine and used it freely, but for all that I would have spells of fever.
I wish to express my gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me. About four years ago I was healed of chronic stomach trouble, bronchitis, and many other diseases.
Sincere gratitude impels me to tell of the good which God has bestowed upon me. Christian Science found me in a state of mental depression and physical suffering.
I feel impelled to express our sincere gratitude for the healing of our daughter, two and a half years old. In August, 1910, she became afflicted with a skin disease on the upper arm.
