Testimonies of Healing

I have had so much help from Christian Science that I am sending my testimony to express a little of the gratitude I feel. When very young my sister and I had to turn out into the world without money or home.

Recently I met an old-time acquaintance who spoke of my laying aside glasses, and of how wonderful it seemed to her. Certainly this demonstration over defective eyesight is a cause for deepest gratitude.

About six years ago Christian Science healed me of an attack of grippe. The healing was almost instantaneous, and with the realization that I had been healed came a desire to understand Christian Science.

I also would like to express my gratitude for Christian Science and the many benefits, both physical and mental, I have derived. Several years ago while passing through a swinging door in great haste, my middle finger was cut and severed at the base of the nail.

I have been interested in Christian Science ever since it was first brought to my attention when I was twelve years old, and have studied the Christian Science Bible Lessons for ten years. In that time I have found it a practical help in every trouble.

A few years ago little hope was entertained for my recovery, as the doctors had practically given me up. I suffered from growths on the kidneys, dropsy, and serious organic troubles, besides being a drug fiend.

I have been healed through Christian Science of the liquor habit and a long line of other bad habits. While attending a Wednesday evening testimony meeting in 1918 I was healed of the tobacco habit, which I had indulged for about seventeen years, and have not been tempted to return to it.

I am very grateful for Christian Science and the beautiful healings that I have received, and to Mrs. Eddy for the rediscovery of the truth which Jesus taught and demonstrated.

In 1913 I expressed my gratitude for all the good I had received through Christian Science, having been healed of a severe attack of pleurisy without material aid and only through Christian Science, in a comparatively short time. A physician who, upon the request of my family, afterwards examined me, pronounced me a well woman.

I gratefully subscribe to the above tribute of gratitude. All that I am which is good, and all that I have, is directly due to the realization of the truth as taught in Christian Science.
