Testimonies of Healing

Dear Journal : I feel that I can not longer delay adding my testimony to the list of those who were once sufferers, but are now healed through the blessed teachings of Christian Science. From childhood I was more or less an invalid, and a slave to medicine, seeking rest, yet never finding it.

A Familiar quotation is, "Render unto Caesar that which is Cæsar's;" and in echo to that just and noble declaration, I say, "Render unto Christian Science the high praise which is its due. " I once was weak, but now I am strong.

To Mrs. C.

No words can express my gratitude to God for the blessings received through Christian Science. For many years I had poor health, from kidney-disease and other complications, and gradually grew worse, until I became completely bedridden.

Dear Mrs. Eddy : I have much to say, but I know you are receiving so many letters of congratulation that your time must be limited; but I want to tell you, it seems to me that the good that will follow as a result of the Chicago Convention can not be estimated.

My Dear Teacher : It is with some hesitation that I address you, knowing how fully your time is occupied; still, I do want to tell you a few little things. I want to tell you that I realize a rapid growth in spiritual understanding.

Mr. Editor : When I first heard of this healing I was encouraged by reading the testimonies of some who had been cured.

About twenty-eight years ago I was attacked with lung-trouble. The doctors claimed that my left lung was nearly consumed; also that the right one was badly affected.

During the summer of 1886 I was stricken with a form of paralysis, which gradually took possession of my body, until I was practically helpless. Months I was unable to attend to my business.

Dear Mrs. Eddy : We have been studying Science and Health for a year, and I can not tell you how much it has done for us, giving us health instead of sickness, and giving us such an understanding of God as we never had before.
