For nearly eight years I have been receiving great benefits from my little understanding of Christian Science, and although my heart has gone out many times to our dear Leader for the spiritual uplifting and unspeakable peace I am continually obtaining through the study of her works, I feel that I owe much to our Sentinel and Journal. Every time they reach me I receive much help in reading them, and I feel more and more the necessity of keeping them in circulation.
If each of us will only see, after reading the Sentinel each week, that it gets into the hands of another to read, what great good will be accomplished. I feel quite guilty, when I have allowed a number of Sentinels and Journals to accumulate around me, for the little experience I have had so far in circulating the literature, is that they have generally been gratefully accepted.
I have been at this mine for the past three months, and I am sure if it had not been for Christian Science, the work would not have progressed so well as it has. The results have been such, that I am sure there is not a man here who would not acknowledge that Christian Science helps in every way, and some have received the help physically. One man I was working with missed his drill with a five-pound hammer and struck his hand; the blow seemed to be a very severe one, and he asked me if I thought the hand was broken. I told him it was not, and if he would like me to realize the Truth for him I would. He consented, and after we sat down in the drift a few moments, he got up and went to drilling again, and said that the pain had gone. Another ran a candle-stick into his hand, making an ugly gash. He asked for treatment, and acknowledged the help. I could go on and tell of many more beautiful demonstrations which have come to me through this blessed Truth, but I will close, thanking God for Christian Science.
