The wonderful blessings that have come to me through Christian Science since my first acquaintance with it about nine years ago, make each day one of thanksgiving. When a very small child I suffered from throat trouble, and as I grew older this developed into tubercular disease, bronchial trouble, catarrh, stomach disorder, and a complication of diseases, thus intensifying the sense of fear and worry. I had been treated by the very best of physicians, but they said there was no cure for me; that a change of climate would perhaps prolong my life. I have learned to know that God is
Life, that we live, move, and breathe in Him, and that there is but one atmosphere,—that of Love divine.
I knew nothing of Christian Science when it was brought to my notice by a lady who was afterward my practitioner. After saying that Christian Science could heal me, she asked if I would read Science and Health. I read it night and day for about three months, and had many experiences of healing in that time. Discouragement would often come, but loving counsel and patient care, strong faith and tenderness, were a solace to me,—a revelation and reflection of the divine compassion. After the practitioner began treatment I was healed in two weeks.
