With deep gratitude I give this...

From the December 1920 issue of The Christian Science Journal


With deep gratitude I give this testimony for what Christian Science has done for me. Christian Science came to me when my physicians, after a consultation, had declared there was no hope for me. I was suffering from a so-called incurable form of heart trouble and had been in bed six weeks when a kind neighbor brought in some of the Christian Science literature. I looked this over when I was able to, but could not be come reconciled to giving up my medicine. I could not forget what I had read, however, and after the doctors' decision that I had only a short while to live I decided to try Christian Science. My daughter called a practitioner and five days later I was up and ate dinner with my family. My progress was steady from that time, and for the first time in eleven years I felt well and began to gain in weight. A short time later my daughter, who had been doctoring for a year for chronic appendicitis and trying to ward off an operation, became very ill one night, so I telephoned the practitioner and told her of her condition and she said she would work for her immediately. In half an hour my daughter was asleep and she has never had a return of that trouble.

I am indeed thankful to God, also to Mrs. Eddy, for these and many other blessings that have come to me and mine through the understanding of Christian Science.—
