Testimonies of Healing

Many years ago someone was...

From the December 1935 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Many years ago someone was kind enough to introduce me to the words "Christian Science," and since then I have learned somewhat of their meaning and how to apply the truth in everything that I do; and I have experienced untold blessings therefrom.

Financial problems have been solved by obedience to the rules of Christian Science, seeming injustices have been seen as blessings to all concerned, and wrongs have been righted. Heavy weights of worry have been lifted and replaced by implicit trust in God. Intense suffering of long years' standing has been made to vanish and the comfort of healthy organs afterward enjoyed. My first physical healing was that of tonsillitis, from which I had always suffered, enlarged tonsils seeming to encourage the condition. My father, a physician, always had a remedy ready, consisting of a bottle of liniment and red flannel cloth, for rubbing. Still, change of weather resulted almost invariably in a return of the malady. Forty years ago I was healed of this difficulty by one Christian Science treatment, and it has never troubled me since.

Mine was a discordant body from head to foot, for in my early girlhood days headache, backache, and leg ache were frequent. I must add, too, that I know the difference between childbirth under medical care and under Christian Science treatment and can never be grateful enough to the Christian Science student who stood by me so firmly through this experience.
