My gratitude for Christian Science, put into words, gives only a faint glimpse of the wonderful joy that its teachings have brought into my life. The spiritual understanding of the Bible which I have gained through the intelligent explanations given in the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, has been such that I find myself able to apply it to every situation with which I am confronted.
Undesirable traits of character, as well as a sense of lack, have dropped from me through the years in which I have been a student. The physical benefits have been too numerous to mention. I have been healed of a serious heart condition, sinus trouble, and a nervous condition which had been present since childhood, through the study of the Lesson-Sermon in the Christian Science Quarterly and the periodicals.
For all of these steps of progress I am deeply grateful, but in order that others may know just how applicable the teachings of Christian Science are to help and heal, even through the understanding of children, I should like to relate a healing which my son experienced when he was nine years of age.
