Testimonies of Healing
It would take pages to tell of all the healings of discord and disease that I have experienced through the application of the truth, as revealed to us in Christian Science, and for which I am profoundly grateful. One healing which blessed many came through the working out of a problem in human relationships.
During nearly two decades, Christian Science has been my faithful companion. It has given me a more spiritual understanding of God and of man as His expression.
I should like to express my gratitude to God for some understanding of the words of Christ Jesus when he said to Nicodemus ( John 3:3 ), "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. " This process of regeneration has changed my life from one of sin, sickness, and despair, into one of purpose, health, and joy.
When Christian Science came into my life, I was at a low ebb. An attending physician had informed me that I could expect no more than a life of invalidism.

I am grateful for the coming into my life of a Christian Science student who demonstrated in daily living that this Science has something for mankind which cannot be found anywhere else. After I had been studying Science and attending a branch church for some time, the invitation to apply for church membership, which was read from the desk, found me wanting to apply, but doubting my readiness and worthiness to take this step.
Christian Science has been my only help for over fifty years. Before I heard of it, I had been earnestly praying that if there was a religion which heals the sick as Jesus did, God would show me where to find it.
In 1940, through no fault of mine, I lost a position which I had obtained during the depression years. Although this position was not satisfying to me, I had come to believe that it was the only one I could fill and that if I lost it, I would be unable to make a living.

I am exceedingly thankful for the protection and healing I have experienced through an understanding of Christian Science. One day while I was bathing in the surf, a large wave picked me up, and when it broke close to shore, I landed with full force on my head.
