Testimonies of Healing
In these days of stress and turmoil it seems fitting that those who have experienced the blessings of God's protection through a demonstrable knowledge of Christian Science, should express their gratitude in order to help others facing similar experiences. As one who has been through the Battle of Britain, I am grateful to give this testimony.
In early childhood Christian Science came into my life through a friend of my mother's who spent her summers in the little seaport town which was then my home. Mere words cannot express my gratitude to this practitioner for her loving care of our family when we were children.
Several years ago a cousin told me something of Christian Science. Although no impression was apparently made on me at the time, the seed was sown.
Christian Science has brought much joy. health, and freedom to me for many years.
It is with much joy and gratitude that I send this testimony with the hope that others may receive benefits such as I have received from reading the testimonies in the periodicals. I have had so many blessings through the study and application of Christian Science that it is hard to choose the ones which have brought the greatest benefit.
It has been thirty years since I first felt the healing and regenerating power of Christian Science. According to medical law, I was doomed from my birth because of inherited neuralgia and weak lungs.
A number of years ago a copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, our beloved Leader, was given to me by a dear friend who is a Christian Scientist. At the time I was suffering from stomach trouble, which had bothered me from childhood.
I should like to give the testimony of my first healing in Christian Science. Twenty-seven years ago I was healed of Addison's disease, which is considered incurable.
Throughout the Scriptures we read that it is good to rejoice. Christian Science gives logical reasons for rejoicing.
With a deep and reverent sense of gratitude. I submit this testimony of a healing which opened a new chapter in my life.
