Every trial if rightly understood teaches us to look to the right source for help. We can learn to look to the perfect model and know that "God is All." Since coming into Science I have had to suffer many things, but I say, "though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him." I have learned that God is confined to no one place or people, and that man has no power to harm us.
In the Bible and Mrs. Eddy's works we find new things continually as we grow more spiritual and better able to grasp their spiritual meaning.
Several years ago I had "Unity of Good" by Mary Baker G. Eddy, given to me by a faithful, loving young Scientist, and then, not knowing anything of Christian Science was reading and trying to understand it, when my eyes were instantaneously healed. They were becoming very bad. I had been for a year writing in the County Register's Office at Pierre, S. D., and not yet having been healed through Christian Science suffered all the time while at work. I was afraid I should become quite blind. I could get no glasses that would afford more than temporary relief. After a short time I would have to get others, to be in their turn laid aside. At the time the healing took place there were seven pairs of glasses in the house. It was shown me so clearly that sight is in Mind that I discovered I had been reading this little but wonderful book for two hours by the clock without any glasses, I boxed them all up that day and sent them back to the jeweler's. I can read anything at any hour,—in fact, I do not think of my eyes.
