Sixteen months ago I was awakened from a dream of invalidism to the consciousness of God's ever-present Love. For twelve years I had been unable to walk over one block, and was suffering constant pain.
I went to Chicago and other cities to be under the best medical attention. Each trial left me worse off than before, until finally I was very ill. Eighteen months I could not sit up, even in a wheel chair. My husband took me East where I remained for six months, receiving the best and kindest medical attention. If material remedies and loving care would heal, I should have been well. Returning home, I continued the same for another six months.
At this time Christian Science was presented to me in such a manner as to lead me to believe in its healing power. During the eighteen months of sickness I had rejected all passages in the Bible not containing love in some form of expression. Truth was guiding me into this new (yet old) understanding of God as Love.
