Testimonies of Healing

Christian Science was presented to me several times over a number of years before I was ready to investigate its teachings. Not until I had suffered sufficiently from following the suggestions of mortal mind did I finally take up its study.

I should like to express my deep gratitude to God for all the blessings I have received through my study and application of Christian Science. After a week of suffering, during which I grew steadily worse, I was instantaneously healed when the practitioner called on me, turning my thoughts to the real man of God's creating.

The testimonies in the Christian Science periodicals have been so helpful to me over a period of fifteen years that I feel urged to add mine as a proof that the truth, even when understood only in a small degree, does heal. When Christian Science found me I was in ill-health, living in a very severe climate under most difficult circumstances, and in surroundings utterly antagonistic to Truth.

" Let the redeemed of the Lord say so. " During the ten years that I have been a student of Christian Science I have had many proofs that it heals and regenerates.

When I was four years old my parents became students of Christian Science, so I have known little else. Thanks to its healing power, which was constantly demonstrated in our home, I have much for which to be grateful.

I wish to express my gratitude for the many blessings Christian Science has brought into my life. With the help of practitioners it has met my every need over a period of many years.

In the autumn of 1941 I was suddenly taken ill and was rushed to a hospital. After a few days the doctors pronounced my case a very serious bladder condition, for which I should have to undergo an operation.

It would be impossible to express in words alone my unbounded gratitude for Christian Science and for what it has done for me. I realize that gratitude must be expressed in service and in daily living.
