Words fail to express the love and gratitude that I feel in my heart for Christian Science. All I have and all I am I owe to God and Christian Science, which has healed me of many things—sensitiveness, sorrow, lack, and many other illusions.
Many times when going through deep waters I would say, What is the use of trying? After I took up the study of Christian Science and learned who God is, finding my true self, my heart was filled with joy and gratitude. Although a member of the Episcopal church from early childhood, I truly never knew who God was until I took up the study of Christian Science. I was always looking for God in some far-off place, being positive of heaven when passing on. How joyful I was to find heaven here and now, a state of righteousness, as taught in Christian Science!
I wish to express my profound gratitude for an instantaneous healing received at a lecture about four years ago. I had eczema on one of my limbs. The lecturer brought out the fact that man is well and knows it, no matter what the physical senses testify. I knew that that meant me. That night when I retired, the error tried to scream very loudly. Immediately the thought came, You are well and you know it. I knew that God's work is done. The difficulty was destroyed in my thinking; physically it tarried for a short while, then disappeared into its native nothingness, and I have been free ever since.
