Testimonies of Healing

Many who find it hard to wait patiently for an hour or so in an automobile may be interested in our experience. We spent seven days and seven nights in our car trapped in a terrific northern blizzard with the temperature around zero.

I Have a growing desire to tell of the wonderful answer to the prayer of one who from childhood had been seeking to worship God "in spirit and in truth. " In my home in the Scottish highlands, the Bible was the book from which we read daily.

Christian Science has proved to be such a blessing to me that I feel I should be ungrateful if I did not express my gratitude for the many benefits I have reaped through the study of the Lesson-Sermons as given in the Christian Science Quarterly. From childhood I had been a great sufferer from blood trouble, and as the years passed this gradually became worse, finally developing into blood poisoning.

This testimony is prompted by sincere gratitude for the many blessing received through the revelation of the truth taught by Mary Baker Eddy in her wonderful textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," and her other writings. During my early life I often longed for some explanation which would make the Bible clearer to me.

Very vivid among my childhood recollections are many experiences with sick headaches. I was probably not more than five or six years old when I had the first attack of this kind.

Christian Science came into my life over twenty-six years ago through the healing of a relative who was spending some months with us. The healing was so quick that it prompted me to borrow a copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, and to begin reading and studying it together with the Bible.

It was through the healing of a sister that my attention was first called to Christian Science and the study of the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, was begun. For over twenty years Christian Science has been the only physician in our family of four, and many and varied have been the demands made upon it.

As the years go by, I feel an increasing desire to express my heartfelt gratitude for Christian Science. Eight years ago on Thanksgiving Day I attended my first Christian Science service.

It is a privilege to testify to the efficacy of Christian Science. I have had numerous proofs of its power to bless.

I wish to tell of the beautiful healing of a little niece through the loving work done by a practitioner of Christian Science. This little one was frail from birth, and no food could be found that satisfied or nourished her, or that she could retain.
