Testimonies of Healing

It is with joy and gratitude that I give this testimony. Christian Science came to me at a time of great mental and physical distress.

" How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!" ( Isa. 52:7.

Christian Science was first brought to my attention some years ago at the time of a serious illness of a member of my family. I had been a member of an orthodox denomination and had been interested in things spiritual from an early age.

" Give thanks unto the Lord, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people" ( I Chron. 16:8 ).

Upon reading the testimonies in our periodicals, I often exclaim, "Thank God for this healing and its proof of what Christian Science has brought to the world!" My own life is full of serenity and contentment as the result of this study. It is with the hope that my experiences which follow may help someone else that I recount them with joy.

I have waited overlong to express my gratitude to God for Christian Science and to acknowledge its healing power. My early childhood was spent in a small town where my mother was the only person interested in Christian Science.

I joined an orthodox church when very young, mainly because I loved the people who attended and wanted always to be near them. Changes began to come in the home, and the family moved to a distant city.

" It is more blessed to give than to receive" ( Acts 20:35 ). I have gained so much good from reading the Christian Science periodicals that I desire to give in one of them my expression of gratitude for the many blessings which I have received through the teachings of the Holy Scriptures and of the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy.

It is with a sincere desire to share with others the blessings which have come to me from the study and application of Christian Science that I submit this testimony. Mrs.

Nearly thirty years ago I became interested in Christian Science, and since then I have had many proofs of the healing and regenerative power of divine Love, and every day I become more and more grateful for the many blessings I have received through the study of this Science. I expressed gratitude some years ago through the Christian Science Sentinel for healings I had received.
