Testimonies of Healing

I feel that I must at this time add my testimony to that of thousands of others who have been healed through the power of Truth. Less than two years ago I took up the study of Christian Science in an earnest search for health, and have ever found God's help at hand.

This testimony is an expression of gratitude for benefits received in Christian Science. For four years I was in bondage to a belief in tropical bowel complaint.

I wish to express my gratitude for the many blessings which I have received through Christian Science. I had the privilege of attending the Sunday school for a number of years and receiving the loving instruction given there.

The desire to express our gratitude for all the blessings and healings which my wife and I have experienced through the teachings of Christian Science, prompts me to write my testimony. For many years my wife suffered from severe stomach trouble which, despite the doctor's aid, became worse from year to year, and the attending physician informed me that the sickness was incurable and that her end was near.

In the first copy of Der Herold which was sent me, I found a testimony which proved very helpful, as the case related was very similar to mine. Perhaps this testimony, which I give with deep gratitude, may also help another.

Christian Science came to me like the dawn of morning after long hours of night watching. It was the answer to a lifelong desire for an understanding of God and my relation to Him.

In the summer of 1902 I first read the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy.

I desire to express my gratitude to the great Giver of all good, for the manifold blessings that have come into my life since I took up the study of the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy.

With deep gratitude to God for Christian Science, through which I am coming to know Him as He is, I want to tell of a few of the many benefits I have received, hoping that through my testimony others may also be led to Christ, Truth. Eighteen years ago, after a physical and mental strain of fifteen months' duration, I developed what is known as nervous indigestion.

It is with heartfelt and loving gratitude for the teachings of Christian Science that I am sending this testimony, with the earnest hope that some one may' be helped as I have been by reading testimonies in the Christian Science periodicals. I did not come into Christian Science for any physical need, but because when this truth was first presented to me six years ago I was in the deepest trouble; life seemed unlivable, all was discord, sadness, and no hope of matters being any better; but "man's extremity is God's opportunity.
