Testimonies of Healing

I would like to speak of a case of impersonal healing,...

From the April 1902 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I would like to speak of a case of impersonal healing, which came about during the first year of my study of Science and Health. I had, since the age of twelve, been a great sufferer from asthma and other bronchial troubles; had visited various watering places abroad in search of health, had also tried different medical treatments in Germany and England, but the complaint did not disappear, and was finally accepted as a chronic condition. During the first year I attended the Christian Science services, I repeatedly experienced a sense that I would have to leave the services, fearing to cause a disturbance, as the error would persist in making itself heard through fits of coughing and choking, but with the aid of the dear sister with whom I went to church the error was met every time. After studying Science and Health for some time, quite unconsciously to myself this error vanished, and was free from the claim, which had enslaved me so many years.

I thank God for all the blessings I receive daily through Christian Science and for our dear Mother in Israel, whose untiring labor has given to us the life-giving words in Science and Health. My earnest desire is, to prove my gratitude by my works, and to walk in the way appointed to us.—
