Testimonies of Healing

DISEASED SPINE

From the September 1888 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Dearly beloved Journal: For over thirty years I was an invalid witness for Generalissimo, the ruler of mortal mind. I have become, through the regenerating power of Truth, a valid testator to the Mind which is in Christ.

In the belief of spinal disease, and its consequent weariness, I was, for over five days and nights, bolstered into a position which would not permit the least movement of the body, or the slightest inclination of the head. Drugs promised but temporary relief. Nervine Hospital was the only prescription, from more than one conscientious and first-class physician.

In my dire extremity Christian Science was called to my aid, and in less than one hour I was in the usual position of rest. Before the practitioner left the house I was walking the floor of my chamber, and in possession of my birthright thought. In less than one week I was lifting heavy weights and walking miles, without the slightest fatigue.
