Testimonies of Healing

From my earliest recollection I was religiously inclined, and I had a standard of pure living to which I tried to attain. As I grew into young womanhood, however, I was influenced to do things of which I did not approve, and found myself in one continuous round of gaiety.

I am happy to express my gratitude for the benefits which my family, including myself, have received through Christian Science. My grandmother had a stroke of paralysis whereby she lost the use of the right arm, and the physician said that the trouble would extend over the entire body.

I cannot find words to express my gratitude for the good which has come to me through the power of Truth as revealed in Christian Science. About six years ago I was operated on for a malignant growth of the breast.

A few years ago, when there seemed to be very little to live for, owing to many discordant conditions in my home life, to say nothing of physical suffering, I was led through the loving thought of a friend to look into Christian Science. I have received many blessings through its healing power,—too many to mention.

I owe everything I am and expect to be to Christian Science. Several years ago I was taken ill with nervous exhaustion, turned against all my friends, and wanted only to die.

It is with deep gratitude that I give my testimony of the healing power of Christian Science, in the hope that it may help others to realize that neither conditions nor surroundings can interrupt the channels of Truth, as we are taught in Christian Science. Our Leader, Mrs.

About four years ago I was awakened to the necessity of proving Christian Science in my daily life, instead of using it merely as a remedy in time of illness. Christian Science had been in our home for a number of years, but I had studied it very little, and the basic demand for spiritual growth had never been brought out for me until I wished very much to help a friend.

Through the truth which our dear Leader has explained, we find that Immanuel, or "God with us," is just as effective today as when Jesus trod the hills of Galilee nineteen centuries ago, and proved by demonstration that Truth alone makes man free from sin, disease, and death. Although I have not found the pathway of Science strewn with roses, I have known only peace and hope and joy.

I have much for which to be thankful, but when I try to tell of my blessings I hardly know where to begin. My first acquaintance with Christian Science was not the result of my own need for healing, but a dear friend for whom it had done much brought it to my attention.

I am very grateful for the benefits which Christian Science has brought me. I have been healed of pleurisy and stomach trouble, from which I suffered severely at frequent intervals for many years.
