Testimonies of Healing
My heart goes out in gratitude to God, and to our dear Leader, Mrs. Eddy, for what Christian Science has done and is doing for me and for all mankind.
I have been brought up with Christian Science from the time I was a very small child, and naturally have a great deal to be thankful for. I would like to bear testimony to the daily blessings I have received through Christian Science during all these years.
For some twelve years before becoming interested in Christian Science I had worn glasses. I had put them on originally to overcome severe pain in my eyes whenever I tried to read by artificial light.
My heart is full of deepest thankfulness to God, and of gratitude to Mrs. Eddy for the revelation of Christian Science.
I can express only in a slight degree my thankfulness for the blessings which I have received in Christian Science. About a year ago I found myself suffering from several complaint's which the family physician told me would result seriously.
It is five years since I became an adherent of Christian Science, and during that time it has been proved to me that the Principle of Christian Science is an ever-present help, a deliverer from all troubles. We have experienced many glorious demonstrations in our family, consisting of myself and husband and four children.
In gratitude to God for perfect health, after having been raised by Him, through Christian Science, from what I and my physicians and friends supposed to be my deathbed, I wish to give, through the Journal, the following facts: In July, 1905, while living in Wichita, Kan. , I was taken severely ill with what the physician pronounced inflammation of the bowels.
I HAVE long felt that I must express my gratitude for Christian Science. I have indeed found it to be the "sweetest story ever told," and I never grow tired of listening to it.
Almost ten years' experience in Christian Science has brought me innumerable proofs of the efficacy of the healing power of Truth, as well as many other blessings, for which I am most grateful, and my heart goes out in thanksgiving for a very recent experience. Before learning of Christian Science I had often heard my father say he would rather die than go to a dentist, and I seemed to have inherited this tendency.
I feel it is a great privilege to tell of my healing in Christian Science. After many years of invalidism and suffering I was healed of heart disease, female trouble, and nervous breakdown, after having tried many physicians and newly discovered remedies without benefit or relief.
