[Original testimony in German]

With a grateful heart I wish to...

From the February 1924 issue of The Christian Science Journal


With a grateful heart I wish to testify to the blessings which I have received through Christian Science. My attention was called to this teaching by a friend who had been healed of a sickness of many years' standing.

For many years I had been suffering from an almost unbearable nervous and mental trouble, and a number of prominent doctors tried in vain to bring me relief. Neither treatment at sanitariums and health resorts, nor medicine and restoratives, brought me healing. I was on the verge of desperation when I decided to resort to Christian Science. "Man's extremity" proved to be "God's opportunity." Through earnestly reading in the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, and in Der Herold der Christian Science, I received the wonderful revelation of Truth. With the growing understanding of the nature of God, as taught in Christian Science, and the loving assistance of the practitioner with whose help I advanced rapidly, I was soon delivered from my troubles. After reading the first Herold I discontinued taking medicine; and in six weeks all discordant conditions were removed, and my heart was filled with peace and joy.

For this proof of the divine healing power I am truly grateful. I shall always bear in affectionate remembrance out revered Leader, Mrs. Eddy, and all those who have helped me to understand the liberating truth.—
