Testimonies of Healing

Christian Science has been my only physician for the past twenty-five years, and through the application of its teachings I have received many blessings, healings, and protection. I was healed of the tobacco and social drink habit, sciatic rheumatism, and influenza.

I am very grateful to God to be able to testify to the healing power of Christian Science. Since taking up the study of this Science, I have had many blessings and healings.

As one whose membership in an orthodox church did not satisfy, I say with humble gratitude that my family and I are now enjoying the opportunity of studying the Science of Christianity and of accepting its attendant blessings. Over a year ago I was disturbed by what appeared to be a bone felon on a finger of my right hand.

In the late summer of 1940 I was suddenly taken ill with an ailment which defied the diagnoses of six physicians. Each doctor arrived at a different conclusion, and each specified a different treatment, with the result that, by the end of a month, I was taking thirty-three medicines daily.

I have so often been helped by reading testimonies in our periodicals that it is my prayer that mine may lighten the way of some sincere seeker for Truth and bring a measure of that peace "which passeth all understanding" ( Phil. 4:7 ).

I Want to tell of an instantaneous healing of extreme sinus trouble. I was treated for over two years by physicians and received no benefit from their treatment.

In the twenty-fourth chapter of Joshua we read, "Choose you this day whom ye will serve. " Many years ago I made a choice, and I should like to share this experience with others.

The testimonies of healing in our Journal and Sentinel are a joy to all Christian Scientists because they not only corroborate the truth which has healed us, but give us hope in meeting the problems yet unsolved. I, too, wish to express gratitude to God for all His goodness to me and mine, and to our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, for the purity of thought which brought to her the revelation of this new-old religion of Christ-healing.

Because Christian Science has brought me unspeakable good, I want to share my joy and to express my deep gratitude for what the Christ, Truth, has done for me and mine. I did not take up the study of Christian Science for physical healing, but to help my mother, who needed and received a healing.

" Arise , shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee" ( Isa. 60:1 ).
