Testimonies of Healing
I did not come to Christian Science for physical healing, but because I saw many wonderful proofs of the healing power of Truth in the family with which I live. I cannot say how grateful I am to God and to Mrs.
I am indeed grateful for Christian Science and what it has done for me and for our baby, who was born over a year ago. I feel I owe a great debt to this Christ, Truth, which has lifted me to higher and holier ground.
Christian Science has healed me of chronic stomach trouble, which seemed to be a part of my lot ever since I was a small child. Many home remedies were tried, but only temporary relief resulted.
It is now over eight years since I became interested in Christian Science. At that time through reading our textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, for the first time, I was healed of eye trouble and was able to lay aside glasses which I had worn for a number of years.
Twenty years ago, during a period of great distress and sorrow, I accompanied a dear aunt to Christian Science services, from which I received great comfort and the necessary confidence to face the future. Christian Science has protected and guided me throughout these years, and I rejoice that I am able to give testimony to its healing and protective power.
In Isaiah we read, "Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge my might. " In loving obedience to this latter command I offer testimony to the efficacy of spiritual healing, revealed in Christian Science and proved by demonstration during a period of more than eight years.
After many years of blessings which have come to our home through the study and application of Christian Science, I want to write an expression of gratitude. Several years ago I visited an aunt who was a Christian Scientist.
The profound gratitude I feel towards God impels me to give it expression. I am sincerely grateful to Christian Science for the instruction and help I have received through its teachings.
Christian Science first came to my attention in November, 1913. My mother, who had been attending the services of a Christian Science Society for about two weeks, gave me a Sentinel to read and invited me to go with her to a Sunday service.
I thank our Father-Mother God for revealing Christian Science to Mrs. Eddy.
