With a great desire to share the good which has come to me through Christian Science, I submit this testimony. It was nearly thirty years ago that a friend whose integrity and character I admired very much took me for the first time to a Christian Science testimony meeting. At that meeting I found the pearl of great price and learned that Mary Baker Eddy had revealed the truth to mankind.
A while later I sprained my ankle. My friend helped me to turn my thought to God, good, instead of to matter, and I was quickly healed. Since then, whenever I have proved faithful and obedient to the teachings of Christian Science, it has met my every need.
About ten years ago I found myself unemployed and asked for prayerful help from a Christian Science practitioner. He discerned in my thought a sense of discouragement and lack of faith. He helped me to understand the basic truth of these words in the Bible (Dan. 10:19): "O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong." Almost immediately my thought was wakened. I was introduced to the owners of a new firm, and I have been usefully and happily employed by them ever since.
