I want to express my gratitude for what Christian Science has come to mean to me. Many physical healings have resulted from the application of this wonderful truth. Some have been instantaneous and others protracted, the instantaneous ones bringing with them great illumination and inspiration, the protracted ones turning my thought more earnestly to the study of Science, and bringing great benefit through better understanding.
A few years ago, while separated by a distance of about thirty-five hundred miles from the practitioner working for me, I was instantaneously healed on two occasions, on the receipt of my telegrams, by her clear perception and understanding of Truth, of an attack of lumbago and of a sprained ankle, the latter especially being very painful. At the moment of release from pain, in both instances, I looked at the clock and realized that the wire had reached its destination and the work had been done. Shortly after this the clear, loving thought of a practitioner in Seattle healed me instantly of pneumonia. For the loving, untiring, and generous help of practitioners I can never express sufficient gratitude. Supply and right work and place have also often been manifested, and I have known the great happiness of seeing the work done for others bear abundant fruit.
I am so grateful for the help and uplift received from our literature and our Reading Rooms; for the loving and helpful thoughts of those in charge, and for the opportunity to study the Lesson-Sermon in this always harmonious atmosphere. The many healings and the great sense of peace resultant from work done there are cause for great gratitude. I am deeply grateful also to be a member of The Mother Church, and so to be one of those associated with the Cause making for universal good, the Cause of Christian Science. To our Father-Mother God, to Christ Jesus, the Way-shower, and to our justly beloved and revered Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, I am indeed most grateful.—New York, New York.
