Testimonies of Healing

Nearly four years ago, my eyes began to pain me continually,...

From the November 1900 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Nearly four years ago, my eyes began to pain me continually, and greatly so when I attempted to read, write, or work. I went to one of the best London oculists, and he told me that, partly owing to years of ill health and many attacks of inflamed eyes, my sight was injured, and that in future I must always wear glasses for all occupation. This indeed I did gladly, for I had suffered so much pain that I was glad to try any remedy, and the spectacles relieved me to a certain point, although I was unable to continue using my eyes for any length of time even with them.

Fifteen months later I had heard of Christian Science, and was being treated for other ills. I asked my healer to include the eyes in her treatment, which she did, and in about a week all pain left. From that time to this I have been able to use my eyes freely by any light and for any occupation, without my glasses or the slightest feeling of pain. Neither has there been any return of my old enemy, inflammation of the eyes.

This healing took place over two years ago, and is only one instance out of many which has proved to me the truth of Christian Science. To me it has indeed been the "Peace, be still!" to pain, sickness, and suffering of all sorts, and words but feebly express the gratitude I feel for having been led into this Truth, which does indeed "set free."
