Testimonies of Healing

One day a dear Scientist discovered this quotation carved upon my writing desk, "Look thee unto thine heart and write," and remarked, "We do not do that enough. " I caught the rebuke and hence this testimony.

It is nearly four years since I was first helped by Christian Science, which, though it has made a new man of me, has not as yet enabled me to wield my pen sufficiently well to convey to others my gratitude for what it has done for me physically, mentally, and morally. I wore a truss for a double rupture for twenty years, and for fifteen years I was afflicted with nervous prostration, constipation, and dyspepsia.

Having received so much help from the Christian Science periodicals I feel that I would like to express my sincere thanks to all those who have written so many instructive and beautiful articles for them. I also wish to express my gratitude to Mrs.

I have for some time felt it a duty to give to others who may be in affliction the benefit of my experience, and tell what Christian Science has done for me. In order to make this clear it is necessary to go back a little.

" Thou shalt have no other gods before me. " How little I had understood the importance of this the first of the Ten Commandments, I found out in 1899, when I began to read "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.

The promise contained in the third verse of the fortieth chapter of Isaiah, that the crooked shall be made straight, was fulfilled in my case, for when reading our text-book, Science and Health, just six years ago this month, I was instantaneously healed of what the doctor had pronounced lateral curvature of the spine. I was just looking into Science at that time, and it was my guide and comfort, when, two months later, I left for Paris to continue my musical studies; and during the three years and a half I remained on the other side I was never incapacited from my work for a single day.

On commencing work again at the opening of school I feel deeply grateful for the many blessings that have come to me through Christian Science. I have been healed of indigestion, constipation, and other troubles, and many ill effects resulting there from.

I do not think I could show my gratitude for the efficacy of Christian Science in any better way than by adding one more testimony to the many that have been given heretofore. About two years ago I was laid up with what the doctors pronounced Bright 's disease and valvular heart trouble.

In Christian Science I have found the truth, and it has awakened a faith and hope in me, and established a joy unknown through my past years of suffering. I feel the deepest gratitude to Christian Science for the healing, both mental and physical, and to the dear friend who led me to a knowledge of this wonderful truth.

My first experience in Christian Science came some ten years since. I had for years been a sufferer from what doctors called sciatic rheumatism.
