Testimonies of Healing

About three years ago I was taken with a belief of enlargement of the bowels. I knew nothing about Science then.

I have been a great sufferer from the time I was a small boy. My belief was that of a rupture, and of the very worst kind.

I have been a church-member from my eighteenth year, but never till within a few days have I seen how blind I have been. I was sick on my bed the 19th of May so that I could not lift a hand nor bear that anyone should do it for me.

I wish to give my testimony to the power and efficacy of Christian Science. For three years I have been a helpless suferer from complicated chronic diseases.

I have never given my testimony, dear Journal, and I hesitate to do so now through a temptation of mortal mind. But I will not be deterred from declaring Truth and its ever present help.

I send you two cases of surgery . We have many good cases, but my husband has never been willing to have any of them published; so if you will please suppress the names in these cases we will be much obliged.

Dear Journal . — I send this to you as a simple child returns thanks for a gift bestowed upon her, and as an expression of heartfelt gratitude to God, and the blessed Truth, revealed in Christian Science, for dispelling the errors of sense in mind and body.

Christian Scientist Association . — The May meeting of the association was well attended.

The human mind, the counterfeit, sees only its own creations, all of them counterfeits of God's—Spirit's creations; all of them, like the various denominations of counterfeit money, alike in quality, both as to themselves and in relation to that from which they spring. — Science and Health.

Dear Journal. —About the first of February last, my husband was taken with a very severe belief of inflammatory rheumatism, continued to grow worse for several days, then it seemed to be settling around the heart, and we thought he might pass on at any moment.
