The many blessings I have received...

From the August 1946 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The many blessings I have received through the study of Christian Science prompt me to submit this testimony of healing with the hope that someone experiencing difficulties similar to mine may derive benefit from it. I am most grateful for Christian Science. It was my sole support during my three years and some months of Army life. Since a complete report of my demonstrations would take far too much space, I shall mention merely a few of the more recent ones.

First of all, I am grateful for the priceless companionship, so important to a serviceman, available at Christian Science churches and Reading Rooms. Because the Scientist in the service frequently finds himself out of his element, there is little as satisfying to him as the bond that exists between those who understand that they have in reality one Mind, God.

Among my most recent healings are two involving burns. One was a case of instantaneous relief from a blowtorch burn on a finger which scorched the fingernail. The other was a case of severe sunburn, received while I was exposed to intense tropical sun for an entire afternoon. After about an hour of study, I experienced little or no discomfort. Both cases were healed through the understanding that man, as perfect idea, forever reflecting the all-harmonious divine Principle, God, is never subjected to any sense of discord.
