So many healings and blessings have come to me through the study and application of Christian Science that I am happy to share them with others.
I first learned of this Science through a sister and witnessed the benefits received by her family through its study. When visiting her I would occasionally pick up Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, read a few pages, and then put this textbook down. Nevertheless, the seed was sown and took root. A short time later, while again in my sister's home and suffering from a painful boil under my arm, I mentioned the condition to her. She lovingly suggested that I try Christian Science, which I consented to do. I again picked up the textbook and read for an hour. Upon my reaching home the boil opened of its own accord, and I was healed.
I did not at that time seriously take up the study of Christian Science and only occasionally attended church services. In a short time I had an opportunity to prove again that Science heals. Because I had been unemployed for some time and was finding it difficult to obtain employment, I became very much discouraged. Again Christian Science was presented to me, but I thought that it was only good for physical healings, and I did not understand that Christian Science, when properly applied, corrects all inharmonious conditions. I called upon a practitioner, and treatment was given. When I arrived home, I found a telegram requesting that I report for work the next day. I remained in that position for six years, working under most harmonious conditions. These two instantaneous healings made a deep impression on me.
