Testimonies of Healing
Nine years ago Christian Science was brought to our attention by a dear friend who through its teachings had been healed of the morphine habit. At that time my husband was suffering with paralytic and I with so-called rheumatic trouble.
With a grateful heart I wish to testify to the many benefits which we have received through Christian Science. Many years ago my wife was taken ill with a paralytic trouble and could not walk.
In gratitude to God, and also to our dear Leader, Mrs. Eddy, I would like to relate briefly my experience in Christian Science.
It is now something over four years since I took up the study of Christian Science for physical healing, and during that period I have been so wonderfully benefited and blessed that I feel the time has come when I should make a just acknowledgment of what Truth has done for me. When I turned to Christian Science it was as a last resort, as I had suffered for many years from various diseases, and although almost continually under the care of physicians, I was steadily growing worse.
I first felt the healing touch of Truth and Love through Christian Science about seven years ago. A dear friend, who had long been a close companion, and whose continued suffering I had witnessed, returned that fall from a visit to San Francisco, and I saw such a marked improvement in her that I was eager to know what had helped her so much.
About a year ago my son, who was then living in Streator, Ill. , wrote me that his health was failing, and that his physicians had advised him to give up his position and come home, as they could do nothing more for him.
I would like to tell of the illumination and joy which has come to me through Christian Science. I was induced to try it as a remedial agent when near the end of earthly existence, as it seemed.
Having received blessings which words can never express, I submit the following testimony with deepest gratitude for the help I have received through Christian Science. For several years I had been associated with Christian Scientists, but believing myself to be satisfied with what I received in the church of which I was then a member, I did not investigate.
The inexpressible joy and great blessings of divine Love are offered to all who are ready to receive them, and already there are thousands who have planted their feet on the solid rock of Truth and are rejoicing in the Christ-healing. They that have come up out of great tribulation are rejoicing in the truth discovered and revealed to the world by our dear Leader, Mrs.
I HAVE wanted for a long time to tell how much happiness has come to us through the study of Christian Science. At the age of seventeen I studied for my communion, and afterwards many religious questions came to my mind.
