From the March 1931 issue of The Christian Science Journal


"While I live will I praise the Lord: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being." So sang the Psalmist, and thus sings my heart daily in gratitude to God for the manifold blessings I have received through Christian Science.

Instead of being a semi-invalid, I am now able to lead a happy, useful life, not missing -a day for the past two years in my profession of teaching the smallest children, an occupation which requires much patience, composure, and endurance. I have been healed of neurasthenia with its train of false beliefs. The healing was slow, but most gratifying in the lessons learned. It was like emerging from a dense, mystifying fog into the glorious sunlight!

Likewise, two recent physical examinations for life insurance revealed that I have been released from what was formerly pronounced by a physician to be valvular lesion of the heart. How grateful I am for this healing! But I am even more grateful, if possible, for spiritual growth, for "a change from the belief that the heart is matter and sustains life, to the understanding that God is our Life, that we exist in Mind, live thereby, and have being," as Mrs. Eddy states on page 50 of "Miscellaneous Writings."
