Testimonies of Healing
Obediently and in deep gratitude to God, I am sending this testimony, hoping that it may benefit others. I should like to tell of the healing of a sprained ankle.
For over eight years I was bitter against Christian Science and fought against what I believed it to be; but after seeing the good it was doing in my son's family, I decided to lay aside all prejudice and endeavor to investigate it for myself. What joy and comfort it has brought me in the past ten years! My first healing was of broken ligaments in one of my feet.
It is over thirteen years since I took up the study of Christian Science. I did not look into it first of all for healing, although I needed it very much, but for a religion.
For the numerous blessings which have been poured by infinite divine Love into the hearts of our children through the Christian Science Sunday School my wife and I are very grateful. We see with joy how our children recognize and apply the truth, and overcome many seemingly dangerous errors.
I should like to express my thankfulness for Christian Science, which has helped me to discard homeopathy, to which I had been a slave for ten years. It was no easy matter to give up the tiny pills which had seemed to cure my rheumatism, as well as a couple of other complaints.
About seventeen years ago I was a sufferer from bronchial asthma. Several physicians declared there was no cure for me.
I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude for the many blessings I have received from Christian Science. Before taking up the study of this beautiful truth I was very unhappy, fearing almost everything and everybody, and had lost faith in all but a very few of my friends.
Christian Science came into our home in an hour of great need; and since then we have experienced many healings of serious conditions, both mental and physical, and also of injuries. A healing I wish to mention specifically is that of burns.
With sincere gratitude to God I can testify to a healing which I experienced in Christian Science. Several years ago I had heard of the blessings of this Science through some people I know well.
I had been suffering for years, so intensely at times that I was given morphine tablets, until I could not, as it then seemed to me, endure without them; and the more I took the more it seemed I must have. I do not remember the time when I did not try to live as a Christian and study the Bible, and I tried to trust God to help me and heal me; but I would become very much discouraged, and life seemed dark and fearful at times.
