Testimonies of Healing
In 1946 my husband and I attended a Christian Science lecture given in Italian, and I became acquainted with this religion. To me it was like a ray of light which illumines the dark cell of a prisoner.
I can never express in words my gratitude for Christian Science, which has given me an understanding of man's at-one-ment with our Father-Mother God, and a peace that the world can neither give nor take away. My interest in Science began many years ago.
Many years ago I heard for the first time a Christian Science lecture. I was deeply impressed by it and by the happy faces of the people attending it.
The testimonies in our periodicals have been of much encouragement and inspiration to me from the time I learned to read, and I wish to contribute my own public expression of gratitude. I have experienced the benefits of Christian Science since I was four years of age; so my blessings have been too numerous to repeat or even to recall.
Many times I have felt I should express by means of our periodicals my deep gratitude to our heavenly Father for the wonderful and manifold blessings I have received through the study of Christian Science. In 1896 I was suffering from a condition which the doctors had pronounced incurable.
Christian Science was introduced into our family in 1904 with the healing of my grandmother. She had suffered from some form of stomach trouble for many years.
I thank God daily for the protection, health, and harmony that have been mine through the study and application of Christian Science during many years. It has indeed been a staff on which to lean.
I began the study of Christian Science after my marriage to a student of this religion. In ten years of married life, the happiness, harmony, and protection that have been a part of our home have been due to the application of the truths that we have learned of God and of man's relationship to Him as revealed in Christian Science.
For some time I have felt an urge to write a testimony about the many physical healings I have experienced as the result of my study and application of Christian Science. My blessings also include protection from accidents, guidance in business matters, employment, and last, but not least, an increasing sense of love among the members of my family.
It is with deep gratitude for Christian Science that I submit this testimony. My mother became interested in Science when I was a young girl.
