I feel that I can no longer refrain from giving my testimony of healing, although I hardly know where to start in relating the many marvelous healings I have had.
I came into Christian Science when I was suffering from a severe nervous breakdown which the best medical aid and treatment in a sanitarium could not cure. Christian Science found me as I was approaching invalidism.
There is one phase of the difficulty which I want to mention for the benefit of others. This is the great mental suffering, the intense fear that had gripped me. To overcome this particular phase took honest, persevering effort on my part in studying faithfully all of Mrs. Eddy's writings and the periodicals. Among the great truths that lifted me out of the darkness were two passages found in the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, where she writes (p. 326), "Working and praying with true motives, your Father will open the way," and (p. 254), "When we wait patiently on God and seek Truth righteously, He directs our path." These statements, held to, kept discouragement away, for some of my healings were slow, although others were instantaneous.
