Testimonies of Healing

It is nearly six years since I decided to take up the study of Christian Science, and my husband and I, as well as our children, are very grateful for this glorious teaching. When troubles seem to overwhelm us, whether in the form of sickness or difficulties of other kinds, we turn to God for help and are never disappointed.

During the spring of 1912 I was in a much run-down condition, which manifested itself in a numbness in my left side from the hip down, and caused a great fear that I would lose the use of that side. Through the influence of friends I was brought to a willingness to send for a copy of Science and Health and see what the reading of it would do for me.

I would like to prove my gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me by giving the following experience. When about to make my bed one morning, I struck my kneecap on a metal projection.

" God is Love. " I cannot express just what the truth of these three words meant to me the first evening I came in and read them on the wall of a Christian Science church.

This testimony is sent with a heart full of gratitude to God for the great blessings which I have received. I also realize what we owe Mrs.

Through Christian Science I have received that for which I vainly sought fifteen years in medical science. I was suffering from what the doctors pronounced an incurable disease of the stomach.

Words are inadequate to express my thankfulness to God for what He has done for me. When my baby was born the attending physician thought the child would never see.

With deepest gratitude I testify to the healing power of divine Love. I turned to Christian Science about three years ago, seeking relief from very severe spells of nervous headache from which I had endured much suffering for about ten years, and was healed in five treatments.

From childhood, questions loomed up in my thought as to the why and wherefore of human existence, followed later by a firm conviction that something must be radically wrong; for conditions nowhere seemed in any sense ideal, as each one innately desires to have them. I frequently questioned those who had made a careful study of the Bible, and I studied considerably myself in quest of a solution to the problem, but the result was always peculiarly unsatisfying.

Having been interested in Christian Science for over nine years, I should like to express my gratitude for the many blessings it has brought into my life. The overcoming of chronic bowel trouble, stomach disorder, ringworm, and the restoration of my singing voice, which had seemingly been lost for over four months, are some of the benefits received.
