Testimonies of Healing

Christian Science came to me at a time of great need. For about three years I had been suffering with what the doctors called a tubercular joint, and I had walked with the aid of crutches for about a year.

In gratitude to God and to our Leader, and in order to hold out to others the assurance that there is help for them in Christian Science, I wish to tell of an outstanding experience in my life. For several months I had suffered from what the doctor called inward goiter.

It is with profound gratitude to God and to our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, that I write this testimony. I came into Christian Science about ten years ago after I had undergone a major operation, and had been told that another was necessary.

" O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise. " So sang the Psalmist of old, and this is indeed my constant prayer.

I wish to express my gratitude for Christian Science and its law of Truth, which liberates. Seventeen years ago I was healed of tuberculosis, after all medical aid had failed and I was ordered to enter a sanitarium as the last and only hope of saving my life.

I wish to express my gratitude to Christian Science, which has transformed my life.

Because of sincere gratitude to our Father-Mother God; to our Way-shower, Christ Jesus; and to our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, I give this testimony. I began the study of Christian Science to find help for mental suffering and nervousness, but soon found that "not partially, but fully, the great healer of mortal mind is the healer of the body," as Mrs.

During the past twenty-five years, my family and I have depended absolutely upon Christian Science in overcoming every discord, of whatever nature; and we can say with hearts overflowing with gratitude that the truth, as taught in Christian Science, has never failed to heal when properly applied. Christian Scientists may fail, temporarily, but Christian Science never will.

We read in Psalm 127 : "Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it. " Like countless others, I am rebuilding my house, or concept of life, on the firm foundation of God's law of good, as taught in Christian Science, thus finding health, security, and abundance.

More than twenty years ago I was asked by a relative to look into Christian Science for a much-loved son who had been afflicted from birth, but I was loath to believe that this teaching could do what physicians had failed to do. A little later our daughter became ill.
