Testimonies of Healing

I started wearing glasses in middle school because I was diagnosed with astigmatism. After graduating from college, I took Christian Science class instruction, which gave me a clearer understanding of man as God’s perfect spiritual reflection, and I realized I needed to challenge a limited, material view of eyesight as something that can be lost or distorted.

After leaving home and moving to a house of my own, I was working on some carpentry and injured myself, such that there was evidence of internal bleeding. It is an understatement to say that I was frightened.

I would like to share my deep gratitude for a wonderful experience I had through Christian Science. As a Sunday School student, I learned so much from studying the truths in this divine Science, and it was a great help to me in school and my life in general.

I rejoice for the most wonderful Christmas gift I could have asked for—the freedom to walk freely. Last year, while I was helping a friend about ten days before Christmas, I found it painful to walk.

I wish to express my gratitude for a healing of swollen feet and ankles, which led to a healing of anger along the way. When I experienced irritation in my feet for a few days, I didn’t think much about it or address it prayerfully.

A little over a year ago, I was sitting on the lounge (couch) one evening about to listen by phone to the Wednesday testimony meeting of my branch Church of Christ, Scientist, when I felt I was losing consciousness. I was very fearful because I couldn’t hold my head up and needed the lounge to support it.

With a heart full of gratitude, I would like to share a recent healing. Last year in March, I woke up one Saturday at midnight with severe symptoms of indigestion.

I had a healing a few years ago, which I wanted to share by writing it up. Days went by and I had not written the testimony.

The first verse of the Bible, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth,” in Genesis 1 , lays the foundation for the truth that Christ Jesus taught his followers, which he demonstrated by healing all kinds of diseases, and ultimately proved by his resurrection. Mary Baker Eddy discovered the Science behind the Master’s words and works, and faithfully recorded her discovery so that anyone can, through study and persistent effort, prove in their own experience the goodness of God, who is all Life.

A number of years ago, for no apparent reason I started experiencing acute sleeplessness. Whereas in the past I could fall asleep within minutes, suddenly it took several hours to fall sleep.
