Testimonies of Healing
Looking back over the past fifteen years, during which time Christian Science has been my friend and companion, comforting, guiding, and strengthening my upward journey from sense to Soul, I think it is fitting to express my gratitude for the many blessings received. Because I have so many things to be thankful for, it would be hard to count them all—Mrs.
Our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, tells us in the Manual of The Mother Church (Art. XVII, Sect.
While writing this testimony I have recalled scores of blessings which have come to me through Christian Science, and I say with the Psalmist (Ps. 36:7) , "How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God!" Many years ago a neighbor lent my mother two copies of the Christian Science Sentinel.
I should like to confirm my testimony which appeared in the Christian Science Sentinel of September 30, 1933, and to state that the fear of consumption mentioned therein was completely blotted out. During the years that have followed the publishing of the testimony, I have experienced much joy and happiness.
About five years ago I badly injured my right arm, apparently breaking it in two places. I declared that nothing had happened to a spiritual idea, which I knew in reality I was.
Because I am becoming more conscious every day of God's love, protection, and guidance, I wish to offer this testimony of sincere gratitude in the hope that other families may be benefited through the study of Christian Science as ours has been. I am grateful that as a child I was taught the practical truths of Christian Science in our home and also in the Sunday School.
I am most grateful to God for the blessings I have received through the application of Christian Science, and I take this means of stating my conviction that Christian Science will solve our every problem. Some time ago I was scheduled to take an air flight to a distant city, and a change of planes at a midway airport was necessary.
Thirty-three years ago I suffered a mental and physical breakdown. For three years I consulted one doctor after another with no success.
The fruits of Christian Science in my life have been many. Through love for the teachings of this Science, I have been divinely inspired and strengthened since my first days as a pupil in the Sunday School.
Christian Science healed me of a glandular deficiency over twenty years ago. Specialists at a well-known clinic had told me that I should take medicine three times a day and have a complete physical examination every six months.
