Words cannot express the gratitude I feel for Christian Science and its healing power. Many years ago I was very successful in the business world. I knew there was a God, but I was too busy to go to church. I went along in this way until I made a bad investment and lost everything. I was resentful, and one thing seemed to lead to another, until I had a complete breakdown, involving blood poisoning and the fear of losing my sight.
A few years previously my daughter had been healed of arthritis through Christian Science and had become a student of this religion. She heard what had happened to me and asked if I would like to try Science. I said I would. I called a practitioner and told her of my plight. The practitioner said I was God's perfect child and asked me to call her in the morning. After talking with her, I told myself I would not call her again. How could she say I was perfect when she had not seen me?
However, that night was the first time I had slept in two weeks. The next morning I could not wait to call the practitioner. She asked if I had ever been to a Christian Science church. I said I had not and knew nothing about the religion. All I knew was that my daughter had been healed through it. The practitioner told me of the Wednesday evening testimony meetings and invited me to attend one. She said that I would be going with God, since He is ever present.
