Testimonies of Healing

Christian Science is the greatest thing that can come into any one's life; it satisfies. The knowledge that Christian Science is the truth gives us a firm foundation and nerves every endeavor.

During the years that I have been a student of Christian Science I have been healed of many physical troubles. When I first began to read "Science and Health with key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy I was melancholy, worried, and distressed over conditions in my home, filled with self-pity, and full of ceaseless questionings.

I wish to relate briefly what Christian Science has done for me. The greatest and most priceless blessing to me is that I have found peace— that peace of which Jesus speaks: "Peace I leave with you my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth give I unto you.

It is many years since I first heard of Christian Science or even the name of Mary Baker Eddy, the author of that wonderful book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," which was brought into our home by a son who was in search of health. By daily reading and studying I have come to know something of the allness, the greatness of the divine Mind who rules over all.

As I have been studying Christian Science for many years. I think it is high time that I give my testimony to the world, through our periodicals.

I should like to add my testimony to the many helpful ones that appear in the Journal and Sentinel. My first healing, of stomach trouble, was accomplished by just reading the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy.

There is a beautiful sentence on page 516 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, which is as follows: "The sunlight glints from the churchdome dome glances into the prison-cell, glides into the sick-chamber, brightens the flower, beautifies the landscape blesses the earth. " This passage held my attention, when studying recently, and I would like to tell why.

Christian Science has done so much for me that I feel I should express my gratitude. It has healed me of stomach trouble of long standing, of constipation, and of superstition; and fear of the future and worry are gradually passing into their native nothingness.

Constant seeking for and striving to understand the things of Spirit, as revealed in Christian Science, have brought into my life a measure of peace and harmony never before experienced. On beginning to read "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, through mere curiosity, the very first sentence in its Preface inspired the desire, and hope that therein I might gain an understanding of the availability of God in time of need.

Hoping that it may help some one as I have been helped I send this testimony. I have been healed of many forms of fear through the understanding of God as taught in Christian Science.
