Testimonies of Healing

I cannot adequately express my...

From the January 1914 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I cannot adequately express my gratitude to Christian Science for what it has done for me. Some time ago a growth evidenced itself upon my face, and it soon became very ugly and virulent. It is neither advisable nor necessary to go into further detail than to say that I now know there could have been then no hope for me of cure, outside of Science, save by recourse to the knife, and even that held no sure guaranty of recovery. From the first, dependence was placed on Christian Science, and that only, and with complete success.

I was never in better general health than I am today; while even in what one might term "the theater of the war," I came through practically unscathed. I would further say, with special thought for those whose problems, of whatever sort, are seemingly of slow solution, that so were mine, and this, as I now see it, is only one more cause for present thankfulness. I was forced to learn, through what seemed rather bitter schooling, that the physical healing must be dependent upon a thorough general, mental and moral, house-cleaning, if I may use the phrase. Today I am quite as grateful for this as for anything else, for while I realize better than could any other how much more remains for me to do, I also know that very much has been done, and the way to what remains to be accomplished lies that much the clearer before me.—
