Testimonies of Healing

Christian Science is the greatest blessing which has come into my life. In the past seven years, with the exception of having a doctor in attendance at the birth of our three children, along with a practitioner's help at two of the births, God has been our only physician and Christian Science our only medicine.

Having been a recipient of the manifold blessings of Christian Science for over twenty years, I feel the least I can do by way of expressing my gratitude is to offer the following testimony of Christian healing. In 1918, I was healed of a combination of so-called Spanish influenza, double pneumonia, and other complications.

I had the great blessing to be led to Christian Science eleven years ago. I was a physical wreck.

I wish to thank God for Christian Science, thank Him with all my heart for all the good, all the blessings which my family and I have already received through this teaching. About seven years ago a kind lady, who knew how we suffered from illness, led me to Christian Science.

When I turned to Christian Science for help, I was in what appeared to be a hopeless condition, being completely bedridden and entirely helpless. I was not able to move or turn myself at all, and suffered great pain.

Christian Science came to me at a time of great physical and mental need; and, as a result, my whole outlook on life has been changed to a brighter prospect in every direction. In place of sickness and weakness, health and strength are being demonstrated; in place of a suspicious disposition, more love and trustfulness; in place of instability, more poise and confidence.

It is over nine years since Christian Science was recommended to me, and each year has revealed more of the Christ, Truth, as Christian Science has been demonstrated in my life. From the first visit of a practitioner I was healed of taking medicine.

With a heart filled with gratitude I wish to testify to the great blessings which I have received through Christian Science. Nine years ago, while visiting my sisters, I was healed of chronic nervous indigestion, from which I had suffered for seventeen years.

I have known of Christian Science since April, 1922. In August of the same year I commenced to read the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy.

I want to tell the world how glad and thankful I am for all that Christian Science has done for me. For years I took many kinds of medicine prescribed by kind and well-meaning physicians, all of which proved to be only temporary helps.
