Testimonies of Healing
For a long time I have wanted to express my sincerest gratitude for Christian Science and all that it is doing in the world today, as well as for our beloved Leader, Mrs. Eddy.
" The very circumstance, which your suffering sense deems wrathful and afflictive, Love can make an angel entertained unawares" (Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, p.
For the many healings and blessings I have received through my study of Christian Science during the past twenty-seven years I wish to express my gratitude to God. My introduction to Christian Science came through reading a copy of the Christian Science Sentinel.
Through the study and practice of Christian Science, with its explanations of how to cure and prevent disease, our family has been kept healthy. In joy and gratitude we thank our heavenly Father.
" Freely ye have received, freely give," we read in the Bible ( Matt. 10:8 ).
My first knowledge of Christian Science came when I was a girl of fourteen. At that time my older sister had been told by specialists that she would be blind in a few-weeks and would never see again, as there was nothing that could be done for her type of eye affliction.
With a heart overflowing with gratitude I give this testimony. I searched for many years for a religion that would bring God nearer to me and attended many orthodox churches.
I feel that it is my duty to show my appreciation of the spiritual understanding and healing I have gained by the study of Christian Science. For a period of seven years I was a patient in various hospitals, fighting a far-advanced case of tuberculosis.
Twenty-five years ago, while I was living in a small town where Christian Science was unknown, my sister sent me the textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, saving that people were healed through the study of Christian Science.
Because my heart is so full of joyous thanksgiving, I wish to express my gratitude for Christian Science once again through one of our periodicals. Since my first testimony, published in 1936, I have had a number of physical healings, among them those of heavy colds, lumbago, and the effects of accidents.
