Mrs. Eddy, our loved and revered Leader, in speaking of Christian Science, says to us in "Miscellaneous Writings" (p. 336), "Part and parcel of Truth and Love, wherever one ray of its effulgence looks in upon the heart, behold a better man, woman, or child."
It is now over forty years since I turned to Christian Science for healing. My health had been far from vigorous since childhood. Fulfilling the simple responsibilities of a household, following marriage, appeared to overtax my limited endurance. In what seemed to be an extreme need, I sought the help of a Christian Science practitioner.
I came away from that first visit to her office feeling indeed that an effulgent ray of divine Love had reached my heart. Although I had always loved the good and true, a deep desire for spiritual things was awakened in consciousness, and soon a better sense of health was apparent.
