Divine Love led me to investigate Christian Science three years ago, through the healing of my wife of several so-called incurable diseases. After one trip of several months made with her to distant cities to see specialists and be treated by them, with sanitarium, trained nurses, and doctors' bills amounting to twenty-seven dollars per day for the trip, I returned home with her still diseased in mind and body.
Following this trip were months and years of almost constant suffering; new doctors, new scenes, and new places were visited, none of which brought any relief, till God—Good—sent an angel of mercy to voice, silently and audibly, His Word to her through the understanding of Christian Science for about four weeks, when, lo, we saw her in perfect health; mind and body restored to their normal conditions. This transforming process caused me, an avowed agnostic and rank materialist, to investigate this mysterious something that could change so wonderfully, and marvelously banish disease, discord, sorrow, and suffering.
Taking up the study of Christian Science through "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," with only the thought of knowing something of what it was that could do such marvelous things, I became engrossed in the study; and God revealed Himself to me through the words of this Book, and while I had never for one moment dreamed of being healed of what I thought were my incurable maladies, I suddenly realized that rheumatism of twenty-five years' tormenting was entirely healed, lameness gone, and the desire for alcoholic stimulants completely blotted out.
