A little more than three years...

From the January 1920 issue of The Christian Science Journal


A little more than three years ago Christian Science was first brought to my notice, but I did not understand how anyone could be healed without a doctor. An operation which was performed on my nose at that time, affected the eyes so badly I could not read and could hardly see without glasses. After a while I began thinking about Christian Science and wondered if it could help me, so a copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" and a Quarterly were purchased and the study of the Lesson-Sermons was begun. There was improvement from the first. I have not needed glasses for more than a year and my health is better than ever before. I had a very sensitive disposition and was often very unhappy, but this too has been overcome to a large degree. In the fall of 1917 I had a severe attack of pneumonia. A practitioner was called and in one week I took a trip that had been previously planned. In two weeks all symptoms of the disease were gone. Before that I was always subject to colds; now I seldom have one and if I do it is quickly overcome.

I am grateful for these and other demonstrations of this wonderful truth, but much more so for the spiritual understanding I am gaining each day. I am grateful to Mrs. Eddy, who marked the way for us and for having learned that divine Love is always present and meets all our needs. —
