Testimonies of Healing

About two years ago I was taken with a severe attack...

From the June 1911 issue of The Christian Science Journal


About two years ago I was taken with a severe attack of illness. I was suffering very much with pain in my lungs and had great difficulty in breathing, when a Christian Science friend called to see me. When she came into the room I was taking medicine, and she said, "My dear, you have no need of this or any other drug, for God is All-in-all." I told her I knew He was, but could not see how I could be healed without making use of this means He had provided for me. She assured me that God never provided drugs for any one. I told her if I could be healed without them, I was perfectly willing; so she treated me. I fell 'asleep and slept for about five or six hours, and when I awoke I did not have a pain or an ache and the next morning got up feeling as well as I ever did. That day I attended a Christian Science church for the first time, and from that time on I became very much interested in Christian Science.

A short time after this I was instantly healed of acute throat trouble. I then secured a copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy, and through the understanding of Christian Science I have been healed of many ailments, one of which was a chronic stomach and bowel trouble, which had taken the form of tuberculosis. When I thought I was about to pass on, I found God to be an ever-present help through the little understanding I had gained of Christian Science. Today I am a well, healthy woman. I have also been able to lay aside glasses after wearing them for over seven years. I feel very grateful to God for the healing, and to Mrs. Eddy for the spiritual understanding we have of the Scriptures through the study of Science and Health and other of her inspiring works.—
