So many manifestations of love have come to me and to our family of six in the thirty-five years we have relied wholly upon Christian Science that it is with humility, as well as deep gratitude, that I bear witness to its efficacy in healing the sick and reforming the sinner.
Speaking to the multitude of John the Baptist, Jesus said, "What went ye out for to see?" The answer to that question is found in Christian Science churches throughout the world every Wednesday night, when testimonies are given of the healing of sickness, of reformation of the sinner, and of the comforting of the grief-stricken. In Isaiah it is written (61:1), "He hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound."
Because it heralded the dawn in my consciousness of some degree of spiritual understanding, I should like to tell of the first proof of healing that came to me through the application of Christian Science. Although many other healings have occurred since, the first one stands out vividly, despite the passage of many years.
