Testimonies of Healing
I share this healing with readers of the Christian Science periodicals in the hope it will encourage especially those who have been working out a problem over an extended period of time. Quite a number of years ago, when our two children were in the lower grades, my husband had a full-time job in the space industry.
It has been my intention for a long time to submit a written testimony. Heretofore, it was my practice to tell of my gratitude at Wednesday testimony meetings.
I began attending a Christian Science Sunday School at the age of seven, along with my two younger brothers and a sister. My mother developed a great interest in this wonderful, healing religion, and my father attended church services.
Christian Science has been such a great blessing in my life that I would like to acknowledge this fact and share some of the blessings. I have received inspiration over many years from reading the testimonies of others.

Words cannot express the deep gratitude that I feel for Christian Science, which has restored spiritual healing to Christianity. A number of years ago I had a healing that proved to me beyond doubt this eternal fact ( Ps.
From infancy Christian Science has met my needs, guiding and spiritualizing my existence. I am deeply grateful for the insight and steadfastness of my parents, who early enrolled me in a Christian Science Sunday School, and who lived the teachings of this religion.

This healing came through relying entirely on Christian Science, and it was proof that "whoso hearkeneth unto me [God] shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil" ( Prov.
As is true of so many others, it was physical healing that brought me into Christian Science. When I was about eight years old, during an outbreak of German measles, I came down with all the symptoms.
