Testimonies of Healing

In 1962 my company assigned me to a project in a European country. As work on the project progressed, I began to develop an unkind and critical attitude toward the engineers of that country with whom I worked.

Christian Science is such a practical religion for everyday living. A few years of Christian Science Sunday School training opened my eyes to the Christly way, and I knew this was what I wanted.

Through the years that I have been studying Christian Science I have been very grateful for abundant and continuing unfoldment of good. It has been inspiring to hear the testimonies of others who expressed gratitude for the trial of their faith and the overcoming of troubles as evidences of God's care in their lives.

I am grateful that Christian Science was introduced to me early in my life, at a time when I felt inconsolable. It has taught me love and appreciation for myself and others, and not to run away from problems, but to enlarge my understanding of God's allness and His love when situations seem insolvable.

[Original in German] With a grateful heart, I think of the many blessings which I have had from my study of Christian Science through the years, whether in cases of illness or in times of great need and difficulties. If we earnestly strive to walk the straight path and to trust divine Love steadfastly and loyally, we can be certain of His love, His help and loving guidance.

My joy and gratitude for a new nature prompt me to share this Christian Science healing. The study of Christian Science has been an integral part of my life since my early twenties.

At the age of sixty-two, after recuperating from surgery and suffering from angina, I was compelled to retire from my position as chief design engineer in a manufacturing plant. The following year my wife and I moved to California to live in retirement on a much more limited income than that to which we had been accustomed.

Two weeks after I arrived home from the joyous experience of class instruction, my family and I were to go to the Middle West and help my parents harvest their wheat crop. But a letter came telling us to change our vacation plans if we wished, as my parents were sure there would be no crops to harvest.

I became acquainted with Christian Science sixteen years ago. In spite of my efforts to avoid this illumined way, today I am on it, full of gratitude and tremendously happy to be able to testify to the deep change which this wonderful Science brought about for me.
