Christian Science found me at a time which I can truthfully say was to me as "man's extremity," and which proved to be "God's opportunity." I was suffering from an incipient cancer, and had tried all sorts of medicine, osteopathy, and finally surgery, after which I was assured my health would be better than ever; yet I found myself worse than before, due to weakness and infection which caused me to visit the doctor for treatment for almost a year. Several years later I visited another prominent physician in this city and was informed that I was no better than before the operation; and after he had done everything in his power to heal me, he advised a second operation. This is where Christian Science found me. A neighbor gave me some copies of the Christian Science Sentinel to read and advised me to visit a practitioner, whom I lost no time in interviewing. I shall never forget my first visit, for when I was lovingly told about the God of love and my relationship to Him, I knew I had found the truth. The next day I was healed of the sore which I had tried for years to get rid of by material means. Needless to say, I was grateful.
Since that healing there have been a number of others: healings of colds (which had always been followed by sore throat), of sick headaches, chronic constipation, trench mouth, and bruised fingers. Ordinarily I should have lost two finger nails, but I did not experience any discomfort. These are just a few of the many blessings which have come to me since I have been studying and applying Christian Science. I am grateful for every channel through which this wonderful truth reaches mankind, and my greatest desire is to help others as I have been helped.— Germantown, Ohio.
