Testimonies of Healing

Some thirteen years ago, I was overcome by nervous prostration. Materia medica was tried, but I received no benefit.

I wish to express my gratitude for the many blessings that have come to my family and to me through the teachings of Christian Science. We have had innumerable healings.

In the summer of 1922 a rash appeared on my body, accompanied by a terrible itching sensation as soon as I was warmly in bed; and I could get no sleep. This tormented me for weeks.

In 1911, a growth, commonly called a wen, was cut from my head by a surgical operation. At the same time a tiny one was apparently removed, too; but some time afterwards I found that the small one was still there.

I wish to take this opportunity of expressing my gratitude for Christian Science and for all it has done for me. Because I have grown up in the knowledge of this wonderful truth since I was about ten years old, I am sometimes tempted to think I have nothing to give a testimony about, because I have experienced no big healing.

I have been a student of Christian Science for about twenty years, and in that time have experienced many healings. Recently, while coming home on a street car one evening, I was suddenly attacked with very severe pains, apparently a case of poisoning.

For several years I was a victim of hay fever. I dreaded to see the fall of the year come, on account of the return of this disease and the misery it caused me.

Some years ago I suffered from serious stomach trouble. After medicine and methods of nature healing had failed, I decided to try Christian Science, of which I had just heard for the first time.

It is a great privilege to speak of the blessings that have come to me since I have been trying to get a better understanding of God through the study of Christian Science. In our home life there is joy; we now have happiness and peace instead of worry, melancholy moods, and discontent.

When I found Christian Science I was not searching for it. Indeed, I was neither sick nor discouraged.
