Testimonies of Healing

I had long known of Christian Science before it became of vital importance to me. During school and college years, I frequently attended Christian Science church services and lectures.

The coming of Christian Science was the dawn of a new light to me. My first healing was that of a very tenacious intestinal trouble which caused inactivity.

When I first came to Christian Science I was a most miserable woman. I had grown very despondent, and had lost all interest in life.

I have had so much help from the testimonies in The Christian Science Journal and Christian Science Sentinel that I should like to express my gratitude for Christian Science, hoping I may help some one as I have been helped. Being in the theatrical profession, I have found this Science to be a wonderful help, destroying discords so quickly that I have not had to lose any time from work.

It was nearly twenty years ago that I became a student of Christian Science. At first I gained a great love for it and faith in it through the healing of my mother of a severe and very painful case of intercostal neuralgia of many years' standing, which had baffled all material means, and also through my own healing.

A feeling of deep gratitude prompts me to tell of the blessing which I have received in Christian Science. Eleven years ago my daughter, who was then twelve years old, was afflicted with a severe scrofulous disease which affected her seriously.

When quite a young girl I became interested in Christian Science through attending the Christian Science Sunday School. The lessons of truth and love which I learned there have been the foundation of my living ever since, and have directed my path in the right way during the subsequent years.

Christian Science has blessed me in many ways. One of the first healings I experienced in Christian Science was that of eye trouble.

It is four years since I was first introduced to the subject of Christian Science, in order to help a dear one who was suffering intensely, and whom the doctors could not relieve. When I was told Christian Science would heal without drugs, I was rude enough to say, "I could never believe that.

Though I had heard of Christian Science for a number of years, beyond admitting its metaphysical value I found no real use for it until a little over four years ago. It was then, after a period of severe business depression, that as a result of the consequent worry, fear, and loss I was taken very ill.
