Testimonies of Healing

It is with a heart full of gratitude to our dear Leader that I write this testimony. I first learned of Christian Science more than ten years ago, through a very dear friend who lent me a copy of the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy.

When I turned to Christian Science for help, I was suffering from what the doctors claimed was a complication of diseases. They said I had a tumor, hemorrhoids, heart disease, and adhesions.

I want to express my gratitude for what Christian Science has come to mean to me. Many physical healings have resulted from the application of this wonderful truth.

With a heart full of gratitude for restoration to health and the spiritual uplift I have received from the study of Christian Science, I wish to speak of an experience I had a few years ago which proved that divine Mind is ever present, and that there is neither time nor limit to its divine operation. While traveling with my husband on one of his business trips in the East, I met with an accident one evening.

It is a great joy to me to tell of all that Christian Science has done for me. When this name was mentioned to me for the first time I was suffering greatly from what physicians called a tumor in the intestines.

It is now over ten years since I was led to Christian Science, and I have proved in some degree that it is all it claims to be,—the law of God,— and that whatever the problem, it never fails when properly applied. In 1918, by the help of a loving practitioner, I experienced a beautiful healing of influenza.

In June of 1925 I experienced a wonderful demonstration of the power of Truth. My daughter, aged twenty-four, was suddenly attacked with cholera, which was very prevalent that summer in the valleys of Kashmir.

I feel that I must try to express part of the gratitude I feel for what Christian Science has done for me, in the hope that someone who is wandering in the darkness of mortal belief may be guided thereby to the same light. I was brought up in a very religious home; but it was not until severe troubles, domestic and financial, came upon me, breaking up my home and shattering my health, that I really turned Godward, resolved to find some power that could heal and save both myself and other sufferers.

It is with a very deep sense of gratitude that I write this testimony for publication. When I was first led to try Christian Science (about four years ago) for healing, I was, according to the medical fraternity, a physical and nervous wreck.

In a family of six children there have been many children's diseases. Some were overcome instantaneously through Christian Science, others took longer to heal.
