Testimonies of Healing

ASTHMA AND RUPTURE

[Extract from a letter to Rev. M. B. G. Eddy.]

From the January 1888 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Dear Teacher: I meet those who are tired with that which satisfieth not, and with joy listen to the good news which Christian Science brings to them. A gentleman came in one evening to inquire if a rupture could be healed. While talking with him, he felt that he was made whole. He left the room, removed his truss, and went to his boarding-place. In the morning he came and acknowledged the cure, and is doing very heavy work.

I called last Sunday at a house where a lady, over seventy, was coughing and experiencing great difficulty in breathing. She said she had coughed herself almost to death. I asked her if I might treat her. In a few minutes she ceased coughing and breathed naturally. Looking up with a smile she asked, "Why don't I cough?" I answered: "Why don't you?" With joy beaming from her countenance she replied: "Because I don't want to."
