My heart overflows with deepest gratitude to God for Christ Jesus, who many years ago practiced Christianity, and for Mrs. Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science.
I had the joy of seeing a member of my family healed through Science when his hand was caught in the rollers of a big printing press and was badly torn. So wonderful was this healing that for days afterward I went around feeling as if I were in another world. I felt that nothing was impossible to God, but I still did not understand the truth which had brought about the healing. I drifted along, using what I did understand, but not progressing much in my understanding.
Then my six-year-old daughter became ill with measles. As required by law, a doctor was called, and he left powders and pills to be given to the child. I made no comment, but after the doctor had left I put the medicine away and declared the allness of God, good. The next day when he called to see the child I returned the medicine to him. When he saw that the girl was free from fever and rash and was playing, he could scarcely believe she was the same child, and he asked if I had another daughter. I explained that the girl had been healed through Christian Science, and he said he understood.
