Testimonies of Healing
With a deep sense of gratitude and a song of praise to the one God, I lovingly give my testimony as to the power of Christian Science to heal. For years I was in bondage to a so-called organic disease, and at different times was under the care of physicians, but with only temporary relief.
Christian Science came into our home about six years ago. Since that time each member of the family has been healed of numerous difficulties through the better understanding of God and our relationship to Him as taught in Science and Health.
Christian Science was presented to me about twelve years ago, while I was visiting at the home of a relative who had been healed through its teachings. She told me of her experience and I became very much interested, feeling sure that this teaching was just what I wanted, as I was suffering from stomach trouble, headache, also weak eyes for which glasses had been worn for three years.
Some years ago I became interested in Christian Science through a friend, who brought the good news to one who needed it very much. I started to read the text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs.
It is with deep sense of thankfulness to God for all His loving-kindnesses that I give this testimony of healing. When riding my bicycle in a park, I met with a mishap.
Before learning of Christian Science I was an invalid for three years. I had been treated by thirteen different physicians, some of them the most eminent in the state, but had grown so weak and despondent that I looked for relief only through death.
It is with unspeakable thankfulness to God, the giver of all good, and with gratitude to our dearly beloved Leader, Mrs. Eddy, for her spiritual interpretation of the teachings of the Master, that I acknowledge my healing of curvature of the spine.
I wish to make a grateful acknowledgment of what Christian Science has done for me. For nearly ten years I had suffered from rheumatism, neuritis, heart trouble, and a chronic throat affection.
In February, 1913, I suffered from what was later diagnosed as chronic appendicitis, and as the suffering did not diminish, I was operated on in July by the foremost surgeons of the county. I recovered from the operation rapidly, but did not get relief from the ailment, so was treated successively by a number of eminent physicians.
Christian Science was brought to me through a neighbor when I was very much in need of comfort. From the first the light began to dawn on my darkened thoughts and illumed my way to the truth.
