Testimonies of Healing

 I am truly grateful for Christian Science and for what it has done for me. I sought it for healing, which seemed to come to me slowly and through great effort to obtain the truth which makes free, but I can say that every effort met its reward in a higher understanding and a clearer perception of the healing and redemptive Christ, as given in the Scriptures and made available through "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs.

With a heart full of gratitude and praise to God for Christian Science, I wish to affirm the above statement of my sister. I was with her from the beginning of her treatment in Christian Science, watching the struggles, strivings, and demonstrations of the truth wrought through the right understanding of God as taught in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.

WHEN , over two years ago, sick, discouraged, and ready to die, Christian Science found me, and I was healed of all my diseases, my gratitude could have been more easily expressed, but as blessings have multiplied it has so grown and overflown speech and pen, that the joy of my freedom grows more and more difficult to utter. To the suffering world, however, and to the many weary hearts, I owe it to make a brief acknowledgment of my wonderful healing.

My deep gratitude for what Christian Science has brought to me can only be expressed in the words of the psalmist: "O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. " This is what Christian Science has proved to me.

After the healing of a member of my family in Christian Science, I began the study about nine years ago. Before the year was over I had a very severe attack of rheumatism.

In the winter of 1910 our little girl, five years old, had a fever which left her in a bad state, her ear being affected so that she became deaf. We had a doctor and also an ear and throat specialist, and both said that an immediate operation was the only hope, as it was not possible for her to get well without it.

I am glad to tell others how wonderfully I was helped by Christian Science in a recent very bad attack of bronchitis. After a long night of suffering my husband was able to get a practitioner on the telephone, and in about an hour after she began treatment I was greatly relieved.

These words of Jesus have always seemed very sad to me: "Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?" Perhaps each of the nine lepers felt as grateful as the one who returned to give thanks, but thought it needless to express their gratitude just then; they were waiting, possibly, for a more convenient season. After having had God for our only physician for over eight years, and having found Him a very present help in every time of need, I feel deeply grateful for all the benefits received through Christian Science, which came to me in the very darkest hour of my life, when I was crushed by a deep sense of sorrow.

It is with sincere gratitude that I give my testimony to the wondrous power of Christian Science, hoping by a life of love and consecrated purpose to show a deeper gratitude than words can ever express. To tell even half of what Truth has done for me would be impossible, so many have been the blessings received during the six years that I have known of Christian Science.

A little over five years ago Christian Science was first introduced in our home. Through the understanding of this wonderful truth we have overcome many errors which seemed very real.
