I am indeed grateful for Christian Science. Through the study and application of this new-old truth my eyesight has been completely restored. I have been enabled to lay aside glasses which I had worn constantly for almost eight years; also the severe headaches which were supposed to have resulted from the condition of my eyes have been overcome. Christian Science has also healed me of a bowel disorder which had given me considerable trouble and anxiety, as I did not know what the outcome might be.
This healing took place over five years ago, and since then attacks of throat trouble, colds, rheumatism, toothache, etc., have been met and mastered. Christian Science found me in deep sorrow over the continued illness and passing away of my child, as I had been reared in a church where I was taught to believe that this was all God's will. I could not, however, assign so bitter an experience to God's will, therefore I was left without one ray of comfort until Christian Science brought into my life that peace which passes human understanding. I have proved in my own experience the precious promise contained in these lines of our Leader's "Communion Hymn" (Hymnal. No.178):—
Mourner, it calls you,—"Come to my bosom,
Love wipes your tears all away,
And will lift the shade of gloom,
And for you make radiant room
Midst the glories of one endless day."
