From the August 1970 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Since I wrote my first testimony, which was published in the Journal in 1956, my family has continued to receive daily benefits, inspiration, supply, direction, and a higher sense of purpose from the regular study of Christian Science and my active participation in church work. The continuation of class instruction through the association meetings these past eleven years has been my rod and staff, truly supporting me through many a valley. I shall relate an earlier healing of mine that was a milestone in my spiritual progress.

In Science and Health Mrs. Eddy writes (p. 151): "Fear never stopped being and its action. The blood, heart, lungs, brain, etc., have nothing to do with Life, God." These truths were proven in my experience.

The births of our first two children were very difficult, and I was advised not to have any more children. Therefore, when I found that I was to have another child, I became quite fearful. It was only a few months before this that I had begun the study of Christian Science, but both the children and I had already had healings resulting from this study. After much mental debate I decided not to go back to my obstetrician but to depend entirely upon Christian Science treatment during this period. My husband gave his consent to this.
