I am sincerely grateful for Christian Science and for the many blessings it has given my family and me. The teachings of this religion were of untold benefit to me and to my husband in raising our family. Without it the way would have been hard indeed. I experienced two painless and harmonious childbirths and have witnessed many healings in our family. Our son was healed of whooping cough when he was three months old. Almost immediate relief was experienced, and in a week's time the coughing had practically disappeared. Measles was healed in two days.
When she was suffering from an attack of appendicitis my elderly mother was healed in less than half an hour after we had asked for treatment from a practitioner. I am deeply grateful for the loving practitioners, who are devoting their lives to the holy work of showing humanity how to rise above the lie of life in materiality and to manifest man's real spiritual self, the reflection of God.
One experience I should like to relate in detail, as it proved conclusively the mental nature of illness. I had been suffering from severe stomach trouble for quite some time. Finally I decided to ask help from a practitioner, and she pointed out to me that without being aware of it one can let personal relationship be an avenue for errors such as antagonism, resentment, and hate, which manifest themselves in various physical ailments. As I saw this fact in the light of scientific understanding and corrected my thinking, I was healed and suffered no more distress.
