Testimonies of Healing

Every earnest student of Christian Science is continually grateful for the innumerable proofs that Christian Science heals. I had a healing experience which brought a wonderful lesson.

I first became interested in Christian Science in 1916, through a friend whose husband was at the war, and who, in spite of this, seemed always happy and cheerful about him. I began to wonder how she could be like that, and after a little time she lent me "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy.

For four years prior to coming into Christian Science I suffered with neuritis in my right arm to such an extent that I could hardly raise my arm or put my hand to my head. I went from doctor to doctor but received no lasting benefit.

I should like to express my gratitude for the mental corrections as well as physical healings I have had since coming into Christian Science. One of these mental corrections I should like to relate with the hope that it will reach someone who may be traveling the same mental road that I traveled.

I am deeply grateful to Christian Science for all the benefits which I have received, in particular for the great privilege I have had in being able to attend the Sunday school for several years. There I received loving lessons which have helped me to understand and to put into practice the teachings given by our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, in her wonderful book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.

The joy and gratitude which spread through my very being when I recall the most remarkable healing I have received under Christian Science treatment, are beyond measure. When I was a young girl I was overcome with typhoid fever, and the aftermath was a condition within the body that was most deplorable.

For the help and protection which come to me through the daily study of the Bible and "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, and for many healings which have come to me at the church services and while working on the Distribution Committee, I am profoundly grateful. Before I went to the committee meeting one day, my sight had become so impaired that it seemed almost necessary to say I could not work.

It is with sincere gratitude that I wish to tell of a wonderful healing which took place in August, 1932. We had just purchased an eight-cylinder automobile, and my son, who was attending a party that evening, asked me if he could use it, and I gave my consent.

It is over ten years since I expressed gratitude for Christian Science by way of our periodicals. I am happy to have this opportunity to give thanks again for Christian Science and to God for His loving care and protection during the sixteen years we have been privileged to study this wonderful truth.

I am very grateful for the abundance of good that has come into my life since I took up the study of Christian Science; for the lectures; the Lesson-Sermons in the Christian Science Quarterly; the periodicals; the practitioners who are helping all of us impersonally and universally to know the nothingness of hatred and fear and to know the allness of God, or good. While reading in one of our periodicals a testimony of one who had been healed of delicate health in youth, I was reminded of my own very delicate health before Christian Science was presented to me.
