Christian Science has indeed been a blessing to our home, in lifting me from disease and sorrow, and it has been an invaluable help in the training of our child.
One incident I would like to relate, proving that a little child may understand Truth that sometimes is beyond the comprehension of older ones. Our little boy is between six and seven years of age. One day at the dinner-table his father, who understands very little of Christian Science, was urging the boy to eat some fish, as the child had refused, saying he did not like it. His father, thinking to get him to eat it, told him it was a great brain food and that it would make him grow into a smart man. The boy replied, "Perhaps it would feed my brain but it could never make me smart. Nothing but Mind could do that.' Another time his father felt sick in the morning and the child said he would pray for papa in school. Upon returning at noon he found his father much better. He whispered to me, saying he had prayed for papa twice, and then he prayed again, and then he knew that papa was all right.
Our home would indeed be a dreary place without the light of Christian Science, and I feel very grateful that I was led to investigate its Truth.— Manitowoc, Wis.
