Many students of Christian Science, having proved in a degree the power of Truth over error, throughout some years of study and work, are prone to accept demonstrations and healings as a matter of course, and let it rest there.

I am so grateful that in Christian Science I have found the Comforter as promised by the Master, and that I have had the privilege of class instruction, which during the years has been a great support to me.

That Christian Science can meet every human need, I have amply proved in my own personal experience. I suddenly found myself alone in the world with two little children to rear, having lost four members of my immediate family in less than five years, the last of the four being the father of the two children.
For nearly a quarter of a century many problems in our home have been solved through the application of Christian Science. The healings mentioned in my wife's testimony are true, and others not enumerated are to me even a greater source of gratitude.
