Testimonies of Healing

I wish to bear witness to the fact that the Christ, Truth, as revealed to us in Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, will heal the sick; solve business, home, and financial problems; and bring to the student a degree of happiness and success proportionate to his fidelity and honesty of purpose.

The testimonies of healing given in the Christian Science periodicals have been helpful and inspiring to me for many years, and in gratitude I should like to tell of two healings I have experienced through wholehearted reliance on Truth. One healing was instantaneous—that of oak poisoning which covered both legs; it took place soon after I became interested in Christian Science.

A healing for which I am most grateful was that of a serious heart condition, which had persisted off and on for several years. Before it finally yielded, I had to have frequent help from a Christian Science practitioner.

Before taking up the study of Christian Science about twenty-seven years ago, I was suffering from various complaints. I had been taking different types of medicines and other treatments.

It is with a deep sense of gratitude that I give this testimony. My parents turned to the beautiful religion of Christian Science for the healing of my twin sister and me when we were babies.

Christian Science has made demonstrable the prophet Isaiah's words( 40:31 ), "They shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. " I am grateful indeed for God's love and protection, which guide us through our everyday affairs, and for the vitalizing, spiritual force which makes it possible to run the daily race without finding it wearisome or to walk the daily way without yielding to a sense of burden.

I am grateful that my mother realized when I was a small child that Christian Science was the only religion which she wanted for herself and her children. My kindergarten teacher was a Christian Scientist, and through her help and friendship during all my school years and for many years afterward, I shall always be grateful.

I feel impelled to express my deep gratitude for a wonderful healing experienced through the application of divine Truth, as revealed in the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. One day my son evidenced symptoms of polio.

When in 1922 Christian Science was first brought to my notice by my mother, I was in very poor health. I had been suffering for nearly six years from the effects of an aeroplane crash.

Since the day Christian Science was first presented to me, it has proved to be a heaven-sent blessing. God has lovingly met my every need, as a mother meets the need of her own precious child.
