Testimonies of Healing

In giving my testimony of healing in Christian Science, I am bearing witness to the power of infinite Life, Truth, and Love to destroy whatever is unlike good, God. Every inharmonious condition which has presented itself in the last eight years, whether it has been of sickness, accident, or fear of any kind, has been healed by the application of the rule of healing as taught in Christian Science.

In gratitude for relief from physical pain and mental suffering I give this testimony. In 1902 I was teaming and had to keep a book account, and was in such condition I would fall asleep while entering our accounts and could not keep awake while in a warm room.

I wish to express my gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me and for all the blessings I have received through the study of it. It was presented to me about nine years ago, when it proved to me that "man's extremity is God's opportunity.

I have so much to be grateful for that I hardly know where to start. For the past three years I have been a student of Christian Science, and each day some blessing comes to me in such a way that I recognize in it the result of my slight understanding of this wonderful truth.

Since the first reading of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, over six years ago, the writer has been blessed with manifold "fruits of the Spirit. " These blessings have been manifested in the healing of mental, moral, and physical discords, such as periodical colds, sore throat, backaches, and other erroneous conditions.

At the time Christian Science was brought to our attention, we had been seeking a place where our daughter could learn the truth about God. Our experience in endeavoring to find this truth had led us through devious paths, and we were still seeking when the textbook of Christian Science was lent to us.

I am very grateful for what Christian Science has done for me. It has cured me of a very violent temper, criticism, self-centeredness, and all the errors of a very spoiled child.

Our nine months old child was suffering from a troublesome and painful disease of the skin. It first appeared on the face and rapidly spread over the little body.

After having heard a great deal about Christian Science and having repeatedly felt drawn to the teaching through its clarity and simplicity, I began the study of the Lesson-Sermons in 1914, not for bodily healing, but to be freed from a dissatisfied state of mind—to fulfill a yearning for the truth. The result was amazingly rapid.

I feel I must tell the whole world what Christian Science has done for me, hoping it may help some one else who is in need. I have been healed, regenerated, made all over anew, in body and mind.
