Testimonies of Healing

Christian Science was first brought to my notice when, as a young girl, I was quickly freed from a severe attack of migraine through the prayerful help of a sister, who at that time was a new student of Science. This healing was to me very wonderful because I used to suffer for several days with each attack.

Several years after the birth of our first child she began to suffer from rather frequent attacks of tonsillitis. I had an apathetic attitude toward Christian Science at this particular time and was not applying the truth to the situation very effectively.

"To those leaning on the sustaining infinite, to-day is big with blessings. " These encouraging words on page vii of the Preface to the textbook, Science and Health by Mrs.

Christian Science has been an ever-present help to me in many ways—physical, moral, and financial. In expressing my gratitude, I should like to tell of a physical healing.

I suffered from paralysis and deformity all my life until a few years ago. I was told that the day following my birth the entire right side of my body became paralyzed.

Even in earth's darkest moments and places the Christ is present, demanding ( Mark 4:39 ), "Peace, be still. " It is through letting go of material sense that we find the way out of the human into the divine.

Christian Science has met my every need for more than three decades. I am profoundly grateful for Mrs.

"I would like to send you the Christian Science textbook; I know it will help you. " These words spoken by a Christian Science practitioner when I was in great need completely changed my life from one of sorrow, discouragement, and ill health to a life of spiritual happiness, hope, and well-being.

For many years after my marriage to a Christian Scientist, I had occasional interest and also occasional resentment toward this religion. However, many physical, business, and financial problems continually obstructed my way to what I considered a successful life, and I would strive mightily with material methods and human willpower to sort out these exasperating situations, but with little or no success.

My experience has been blessed many times by my acknowledging God's abundant grace to all His children. At the birth of our first child it seemed as though the delivery could not take place.
