Testimonies of Healing

Christian Science has brought me many blessings since I turned to it several years ago. It appealed to me because it satisfied a longing for spirituality and it was for this reason that I took up the study of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs.

About two years ago, in answer to inquiries sent to a magazine which had published several articles on Christian Science, I received from the Christian Science reading room several pamphlets and a copy of Le Héraut de Christian Science. At that time I was steeped in a wholly material education and was trying to understand the cause or origin and effects of matter, without, however, finding any logical conclusion to the so-called scientific hypotheses advanced.

In the one hundred and third psalm we read, "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits. " Christian Science is the greatest benefit or blessing that ever came into my experience.

Well knowing that all the help that I have experienced through Christian Science is the omniactivity of Mind expressed, hence wholly impersonal, I send this testimony, hoping that it may help some one else as I have been helped countless times, by the expressions of gratitude through our periodicals. Before investigating the subject of Christian Science, I was a victim of a severe form of intestinal indigestion, and had suffered from this difficulty for years, as well as from throat trouble that I had been subject to from childhood.

Words cannot express my gratitude for the blessings and the help I have received through Christian Science. I have been healed of a severe throat trouble, with loss of voice, resulting from a cold.

I am thankful to God and grateful to Christ Jesus the Way-shower, and to our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, for the revelation of the glorious truth which does indeed make free. For the understanding of God which has come to me through the study of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy and all of her other writings, together with the literature and the Lesson-Sermons which give us daily food, and for the church services, I cannot in words express my gratitude.

I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude for a beautiful healing experienced a few years ago of an internal trouble of many years' standing, through the reading of the chapter on Prayer in our textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. I have also been healed of acute indigestion, lumbago, and many other physical discords.

I wish to express my gratitude for the many blessings I have had in Christian Science. I have been healed of neuralgia, infection of a finger, a nasal growth, influenza, nervousness, and worry.

Christian Science healed me of enlargement of the liver and spleen, and a short time after enabled me to overcome the tobacco habit, and has since been my only resort for every need. I began using tobacco when quite a small boy and had used it to such an extent that the doctor said it was affecting my heart and advised me to discontinue its use.

It is with deep gratitude that I testify to the help I am daily receiving through the study of Christian Science. I used to suffer from a violent temper and extreme irritability, but to a very great extent this condition has been overcome, and in its place I am learning to manifest love and gentleness.
