"Let the redeemed of the Lord say so,...

From the August 1947 issue of The Christian Science Journal


"Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy" (Ps. 107:2).

Christian Science found me when I was ready for it. Like many, I was enveloped in material beliefs and fears. I had been brought up by religiously-minded parents in a home where morning and evening family prayers were the daily rule. I had been taught, however, to believe that evil and good were both real, and that evil was at times more powerful than good.

When reaching womanhood, I reasoned that if God makes or allows people to be sick and ill in order to make them good, as I had been taught, then I desired to help these people. So with my parents' consent I left home and went to London to take up nursing. In due course I married and, after the births of our two sons, became a semi-invalid.
