Testimonies of Healing

Every opportunity to testify to the healing power of...

From the February 1910 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Every opportunity to testify to the healing power of Christian Science is to me "indeed a privilege. After many years of suffering, during which time I had the best treatment that materia medica affords, I found myself in a most hopeless condition. Under the advice of our family physician I went to the pineries in Minnesota, hoping that a change of climate might relieve me; but in this I was doomed to disappointment, for r gradually failed, till at last my only hope was that I might get back to my home and loved ones before the end came.

It was in this condition that a dear Christian Scientist found me and told me of the healing power of divine Truth, the omnipotence of God. She told me of her own wonderful healing, also of the healing of other people, and said that what God had done for others He would do for me, if only I would let Him. To me it seemed too good to be true, but I have since learned that only the good is true. All else had failed me  and like a tired child I turned to God for help through Christian Science, and was healed immediately of tuberculosis. I had indeed found that rest which the dear Master promised to all who come unto him.

O the joy of this awakening into the sweet consciousness of man's unity with God. of His unspeakable love, of His tender mercy and goodness! Only those who have found the healing truth can realize what this experience means to me. Prior to my healing I had worn glasses for ten years, and was suffering from several other severe ailments, but I knew when God had healed my lungs that He would do all the rest; and He has done more than I could even think or ask. I at once began to eat whatever I wanted: in a few days I laid aside my glasses, and in a short time I could walk any distance I wished without fatigue, and have realized strength for every need ever since.
