Testimonies of Healing

The Bible states in Psalms: "I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.

I have wanted to write a testimony for a long time, because I am very grateful for so many healings. I have not always been a Christian Scientist, but I have always been very Bibleoriented, in that when I was a child we were encouraged to read the Bible daily, pray daily, and go to church every Sunday.

Years ago I began to have pain in my knees. Many times it was unbearable.

Recently I had what appeared to be a serious gum infection. I experienced a lot of discomfort in both eating and swallowing.

I would like to share an experience I had a few years ago, which proved to me that "trials are proofs of God's care" ( Science and Health, p. 66 ).

My family has been depending on Christian Science for healing through four generations. I am continuously glad for this wonderful understanding of God that was revealed by Mary Baker Eddy.

Last year we attended our daughter's college graduation. I remembered an experience we had had when she was attending a preschool and we'd just moved from another state.

One afternoon during the Christmas holidays, my grandmother phoned and asked for me. I was quite surprised to receive a call from her, asking for my help.

Our family is unspeakably grateful that my grandmother accepted the book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy when it was offered her in 1895. Five generations—of which I am the third—have now benefited from this book, the Christian Science textbook.

It surely was a wonderful, blessed day when Christian Science came into my life. Our whole family benefited greatly from this new way of life.
