Testimonies of Healing

Over the past year, I have been learning a lot about God being the only cause from the textbook of Christian Science, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. I have also been learning that if something doesn’t come from God, then it’s my divine right to completely dismiss it (see, for example, page 390 of Science and Health ).

While climbing the base of the Eiffel Tower in Paris with my husband many years ago, I suddenly panicked. The higher we went, the more terrified I became, until I was so overwhelmed I had to go back down.

In Science and  Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mary Baker Eddy writes, “If Spirit or the power of divine Love bear witness to the truth, this is the ultimatum, the scientific way, and the healing is instantaneous” ( p. 411 ).

The author proved that there is neither a beginning nor an end to our identity, and we are never without our Father-Mother God.

When I went to an eye doctor for new glasses, he examined my eyes and told me I had strong evidence of a degenerative eye disease. He recommended medical treatment in hopes of preventing a gradual loss of vision.

As the author prayed “to gain more humility and to appreciate each quality of God expressed” in her home, she overcame discouragement and experienced healing.

One fall after raking leaves and pulling a thick sweater over my head, I realized that there was something in my eye. On examination, I saw the end of a piece of a very thin wire embedded in the dark iris of my eye.

This author had a healing of back pain when she heard a message from God.

A couple of years ago, on my way home from a Christian Science lecture, the traffic I was in on a busy interstate came to a standstill. As I looked in my rearview mirror, I saw that the truck behind me was not going to stop in time.

On a beautiful , sunny day about a year ago, a friend and I took our dogs for a long walk. When I returned home and began preparing dinner, I felt an odd movement in one kneecap.
