Testimonies of Healing
Dear Journal : About seven years ago I was attacked with a disease the physicians called Loss of Motion, for want of a better name. The disease began in my feet, and gradually worked up until it reached my hips, and my legs became dead and lifeless.
I celebrated my seventy-first birthday at my home, on Feb. 3, 1887.
Dear Journal : One of my patients has brought me this testimonial, and desires me to send it to you for a place in our dear Journal. It is one among the many, through the blessed Truth, in this labor of love.
Dear Journal : I take great pleasure in adding my testimony as to what Christian Science has done for me, in hopes that all suffering ones, who may see my words, may take courage, and flee for help to this Heavenly Science. For the past five years I have been, in belief, a great sufferer, and received no help under the physician's care.
My Darling Teacher : I have only just returned to Grand Ledge, from Newark, N. Y.
Mrs. Jones ,—Dear Madam: I am forty-two years of age, and have always been in the habit of indulging, more or less, in alcoholic stimulant, so that it became a second nature to me.
Being of a bilious temperament, I have for years been sick every three months. This spring, I was taken very severely with bilious fever and sore throat.
Christian Science Journal : After 10 years of invalidism, from dyspepsia, cough, and asthma, in their most severe forms, I was recently brought to death's door, by what physicians call gastric fever. I had so little power of resistance left, that there seemed no hope that I could rally, the suffering from the inflamed stomach and throat being so great that I could eat nothing, and could talk only as I continually moistened my lips.
