Testimonies of Healing

Christian Science came to me at a time of great trouble and unemployment. The friend who presented Science to me said that it would help me to secure employment, and I was therefore ready to accept this help at once.

For the many blessings bestowed upon me by our omnipotent Father in His boundless goodness, I cannot be sufficiently grateful, particularly for the fact that He led me to Christian Science, which has become a shining light in my life. "The darkest hour precedes the dawn.

For years the testimonies in our periodicals have been a great help to me, and I want to express my gratitude for them. Christian Science was presented to me by a friend who saw my need of healing.

Christian Science has indeed given me "beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness" ( Isa. 61:3 ).

I am very grateful that I have had another proof of the healing efficacy of Christian Science and desire to share my experience with others. For several years I had a small brown blemish near my temple.

I am deeply grateful to God for all the love and joy that has come into my life through some understanding of Christian Science. My first healings, of chilblains and a lump on one of my hands, came through reading the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy.

Just before the birth of our first child, Christian Science was introduced to me through the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. The book was left at our home by a neighbor, who assured me that I would receive help merely from reading it.

" Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing," sings the Psalmist ( Ps. 107:21, 22 ).

A number of years ago I submitted a testimony, which was published in the Sentinel. In the intervening years I have received so much help from the study and application of Christian Science that I feel it is high time to express more fully my deep appreciation of what our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, has done for mankind.

It is with deep gratitude to God that I testify to the healing power of Christian Science. My mother became interested in Science in 1922 when I was very ill and several doctors and children's specialists had declared they could do no more for me.
