Testimonies of Healing
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.
It is with all sincerity and gratitude that I am prompted to give my testimony. When I turn completely to God I find that the illumination of the Christ-consciousness, gained thereby, brings healing and release to troubled humanity.
With heartfelt gratitude I wish to give my testimony to the many blessings and healings which I have received through the study and application of Christian Science. My first healing was that of a serious nervous condition, caused by fear and worry.
For a long time I have wanted to express my gratitude for Christian Science through the periodicals. I have been interested in this Science for about fifteen years.
I have received so many blessings from the study of Christian Science that I should like to give this testimony with the hope that it will help other sincere seekers after Truth. About eight years ago I was troubled with a disease which the doctors termed an irritable heart.
After seeking health through medical methods constantly for six years, I was told by a physician that I could not possibly regain my health except through a surgical operation. The operation did not take place, but through the study and application of Christian Science, and some help from a practitioner, the condition was entirely and permanently healed; a complete adjustment and purification took place in my body, and I became stronger than I had ever been in my life.
