Testimonies of Healing

My first healing in Christian Science was so wonderful that I should like to tell about it with the hope that it will help others. While I was riding in a small truck it somehow locked a front wheel in the rear bumper of a larger truck going in the opposite direction.

In 1925, after going through a period of mental unrest and unhappiness, I turned to Christian Science and found it to be the Comforter promised to us by Christ Jesus. Prior to this time my mother had been a student of Science for some years, but I had been indifferent to it.

I have felt for some time a great desire to acknowledge with joy and gratitude through the channel afforded by our periodicals all that I owe to Christian Science. When I was quite a small girl my mother took up the study of Christian Science, and I was enrolled as a pupil in the Sunday School.

For nineteen years I have had the wonderful privilege of being a Christian Scientist. This Science has brought me the priceless blessings of security, health, happiness, supply, and the practical knowledge that man is God's child and that God loves him.

Having been a Christian Scientist all my life, I have had numerous healings and experiences for which I am deeply grateful. Every condition through the years that has not met the requirements of normality and harmony has been treated through Christian Science.

For over forty years I have recognized Christian Science "as the law of God, the law of good, interpreting and demonstrating the divine Principle and rule of universal harmony," as our Leader, Mrs. Eddy, defines it on page 1 of "Rudimental Divine Science.

For years I have read hungrily the testimonies of healing in our periodicals. In the hope that my own experiences may help someone else I wish to give my testimony.

Having boarded in the homes of other people during my childhood, I grew up feeling sorry that I did not have a home of my own. It was not until I joined The Mother Church and a branch church that I learned the true nature of home as a manifestation of God's love for His children.

Early one morning my son went to cut corn with the corn harvester and tractor. As lie was approaching the field of corn he went down a hill.

It is with deep gratitude that I submit this testimony, hoping that it may inspire others to find in Christian Science the practical, available answer for their every problem. As a child I was considered frail and sickly.
