Testimonies of Healing

My mother was raised in Christian Science, and I attended a Christian Science Sunday School during my childhood years. But I didn’t “make it my own” until I was a young adult.

I was badly hurt when I was hit by a forklift in an accident at the manufacturing plant where I work. Before I was taken to a hospital for emergency treatment, the on-site doctor examined me.

I’ve loved this scriptural statement tucked into First Samuel: “The soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with the Lord thy God” ( 25:29 ). One translation of this verse is: “The Lord your God will keep you safe, as someone guards a precious treasure” (Good News Translation).

One day while working in my garden, I fell backwards. Though I landed hard, I comfortably got up, seemingly uninjured.

I am deeply grateful to God for a physical healing that came very quickly and decisively through prayer in Christian Science. On a Sunday morning last year, I awoke with pain and stiffness in my neck.

A line in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy was a great help to me in my career some years ago when I was a fledgling businesswoman. It turned what seemed like a nightmare into an important spiritual lesson in trusting God to guide and govern my life.

One day in the spring of 2017, I felt a sharp pain in my body. After two days of dealing with the discomfort on my own, I knew something needed to change.

I am writing to express my gratitude for a Christian Science healing of kidney stones. There had been a number of cases of this ailment in our family.

I was a doubting Thomas. To me, Christian Science was this “weird religion” I could never accept.

After our summer vacation a year ago, my husband and I were driving back to New York City. Just as we turned off the highway to get gas, there was a sudden sharp pain in my chest, and I felt I was losing consciousness and physical mobility.
