It is with joy, and with gratitude...

From the August 1915 issue of The Christian Science Journal


It is with joy, and with gratitude to Christian Science, that I write this testimony of God's healing presence and loving care. Nine years ago I was a hopeless sufferer, not knowing what it was to be free from pain for a day. Then Christian Science came to my rescue. When looking into this wonderful truth for the first time, I was instantaneously healed of what is known as ulcerated stomach, and ever since then I have eaten everything without distress. This has given me a great sense of joy, and of the peace "which passeth all understanding." Science and Health is indeed very precious to me, for in this book I have found the true physician, God.

Another healing showed me very clearly that "with God all things are possible." In 1906 my fear of an internal growth was so great that I asked for treatment from a practitioner, and with this help I have been permanently healed. Headache, toothache, colds, and many other ailments have all been overcome by the power of Truth, which has never failed to be an ever present help in time of trouble.

To those who feel they cannot grasp the truth, I would say, Do not fear, but leave all to God; He will unlock the door of understanding and give us all things. "Love inspires, illumines, designates, and leads the way" (Science and Health, p. 454). I am indeed thankful to God for the revelation of this saving truth to humanity through our revered Leader, Mrs. Eddy. It is the "pearl of great price" which all may find, if they will only seek it in the study of the Bible as understood in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," the text-book of Christian Science.—
