I AM truly grateful for the privilege...

From the March 1919 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I am truly grateful for the privilege of giving to the world the account of my healing, which took place in the latter part of 1910. It was not accomplished at once, but through faithful work, combined with perseverance and trust, I can now say I am well. I was healed of a complication of diseases, among them being liver and kidney trouble and a very bad blood affection in its worst form. With the overcoming of these conditions I was enabled to retire at night and sleep peacefully and restfully.

While I am grateful beyond words for all this help, yet the physical healing is the smallest part of the benefit received when compared with the spiritual uplift and regeneration, which were indeed gratifying. A bad temper was the first to yield, but profanity, a desire to criticize, envy, and jealousy, have also been overcome. Christian Science has given me a broader love for my fellow man, and has shown me what God is. Without Christian Science, life would mean nothing to me. Through its study I have been enabled to prove that welfare and happiness are not at the disposal of our habits.

As I consider my many blessings I cannot help but feel grateful for the privilege of praising Him who indeed heals all our diseases. I at all times endeavor to prove those beautiful assurances of protection and peace found in the Bible and Science and Health. I have also had numerous proofs of God's loving-kindness in a business way. On many occasions mortal mind would send forth its false arguments of limitation, but by clinging to Truth and Principle and the faithful application of the truth, the obligations in each and every case were met with no delay.
