Testimonies of Healing

From the September 1889 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I wish to give my testimony to the power and efficacy of Christian Science. For three years I have been a helpless suferer from complicated chronic diseases. I tried various physicians and remedies. I wore a German Electric Belt over one year. My Christian friends prayed for me two years ago, that I might be restored to health, but I could not see that I was bettered any. My doctor said I must leave here on account of the hard water. So my husband took me to Pratt Co., Kansas. I had to be taken on a bed. During my three years' sickness I had to be taken to Pratt Co. twice, each time on a bed, as I never was so I could sit up longer than an hour at a time.

Last fall when I came back to Eldorado I had about given up all hopes of ever getting well. So the Christian people of Eldorado took me up again as a subject of prayer, but there was no difference in my health, when, thanks be to God, I heard of a Christian Scientist, and we sent for her to come and see me. That was the 18th of February, and thank God, in less than three weeks I was up and doing my work. My cure has been truly a miracle of God. —
