This testimony is given in joyous thanksgiving, with the desire to bear witness to the fact that Christian Science is the Comforter promised by Christ Jesus.
My introduction to this Science came about eighteen years ago, when I was healed instantaneously of heart trouble while reading the chapter entitled "Prayer" in Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy. I had purchased this book that very day to try to find peace from mental suffering at a time of many financial and physical problems. I was not then aware that "not partially, but fully, the great healer of mortal mind is the healer of the body" (ibid., p. 326).
From that day to this I have never resorted to the use of medicine for my family or myself. Many other healings took place as I continued to study. Continual headaches and sinus trouble fell away without specific work being done. Financial problems were steadily overcome, and we were indeed able to prove that "divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need" (ibid., p. 494).
