Testimonies of Healing
Gratefully I can thank God for a satisfying proof of His ever-presence. On Oct.
The three years during which I have been interested in Christian Science have been the happiest of my life. I realize how much I have to be thankful for when I think of my condition as I lay on what would undoubtedly have been my death-bed if it had not been for the truth that makes free.
I have been so abundantly blessed since taking up the study of Christian Science that I desire to share some of this good with others. Words cannot express my gratitude, but I would like to relate a few of the experiences that have proven to us so satisfyingly the healing power of Truth.
Over five years ago I turned to Christian Science for the physical healing alone, as I never attended church or read the Bible. I had an abnormal abdominal growth which caused me years of suffering and constant pain, and which according to medical science could only be removed by an operation; but to this I would not consent.
A little over two years ago I had become literally mired in materialism. As a natural result, I had troubles without end, and the doctor was never absent for long from our house.
It is a great pleasure to testify to all the good I have received through Christian Science. For several years I suffered with bowel complaint, and consequently had to follow a very strict diet.
It was four years ago that I began the study of Christian Science. My home was discordant and I was very unhappy; indeed, I was so nervous that my friends feared insanity.
We feel it a duty and a great pleasure to tell of the happiness that has come into our lives through Christian Science. For two years our boy was troubled with a peculiar nervous disease.
Gratitude for healing, and for the present understanding of God's divine law and its application to all ray needs, impels me to relate my experience in Christian Science. Nearly eleven years ago I was severely injured in a railway wreck, the result being that I was left a helpless cripple, both legs being paralyzed from the hips down.
When Christian Science found me in July, 1909, I was in a hospital in Kansas City, Kan. , suffering from what numerous physicians said was chronic Bright's disease, with distressing complications.
