Testimonies of Healing
Christian Science was brought to me at a time when all that life holds dear—health, happiness, supply, and home—seemed to have been swept from me. Three so-called incurable conditions had left me in a state of helplessness, and I had been told by three prominent physicians that my case was beyond their aid.
It is with a heart full of gratitude for the many blessings Christian Science has brought into our home in the past nine years that I give this testimony. I took up the study of Christian Science for a physical healing.
After twenty years of experiencing proof of God's great goodness to His beloved children, I am writing this testimony. I am grateful to live in an age when, through the purity and courage of Mary Baker Eddy, Christian Science has been given to a needy world.
Christian Science came to me during childhood as a result of my mother's healing of invalidism; and it is a joy to realize that she could not have given me a richer blessing or a more lasting inheritance. When I was a child, this eternal truth brought to me an increase of health and harmony, freedom from fear, and an awakening to man's capabilities which enabled me to be a successful student throughout my school and college life.
I have had so many proofs of the healing power of Christian Science that it is surely time for me to express my gratitude for God's great goodness. When I first heard of Christian Science, I was having electrical treatments and taking six kinds of medicine.
THE healing efficacy of Christian Science has been forcibly proved in my experience. While taking a course in professional education, I was afflicted with epilepsy, and, while I was able to finish my course of study, the erroneous condition appeared to grow upon me to such an extent that I was incapacitated for any work.
IT is difficult for me to conceive of our being without Christian Science, for this wonderful truth has meant very much to me and to members of my family over a period of twenty-seven years. In the student world, the business world, and the social sphere I have experienced many proofs of both the protective and the corrective power of God, ever available to us through heeding the explanations and following in the footsteps of our beloved Way-shower, Jesus, and our revered Leader, Mary Baker Eddy.
Words can never express the gratitude I feel for the joy, love, and happiness I have experienced since taking up the study of Christian Science, about nine years ago. Before that time, I did not think it possible to enjoy such peace and harmony.
I am more grateful than I can say for all the good that has come into my life and home through the earnest study and application of Christian Science. I have experienced many proofs of the presence and power of divine Love in the overcoming of various forms of sickness and error, such as the tobacco and liquor habits, the using of profane language, and a quick temper.
Christian Science has done so much for me that it is with a deep sense of gratitude that I write this testimony. A few years ago, I fell on the pavement, breaking my arm.
