I did not find Christian Science...

From the July 1924 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I did not find Christian Science through physical healing: I found it first by searching for I knew not what. While reading the literature I found in Christian Science the answer to questions which had not been answered to my satisfaction in my former church. I found Truth, and an understanding of the teaching of the Bible,—the truth about God and man. Many things have been unfolded to me through the study of Christian Science.

The first healing I experienced was of inflammatory rheumatism. My right arm and hand were badly swollen. I asked my husband to call a Christian Science practitioner over the telephone (we lived several miles out in the country); and he did so. I was suffering severe pain, had high fever, and could not sleep. In twenty minutes after we called for help the pain left me. My hand was swollen for a few days, and then was normal. My neighbors told me it would be stiff, but it was not; for what God does is perfect and permanent.

About two years ago five of my children had smallpox. All were beautifully and quickly healed through Science. None of them were in bed over two days; and no scars were left on any of them. Also, during the first so-called epidemic of influenza, four of the children had the disease. All were quickly healed. One boy was seriously ill; but all the symptoms were gone in less than two weeks.
