Testimonies of Healing

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.

In deep gratitude I should like to take advantage of the great privilege of giving a testimony and to relate how I came to Christian Science. Over three years ago I suddenly became sick.

Christian Science came to me at a time of great physical need. I had been through what is humanly called a nervous breakdown and was suffering from nervous strokes when I first heard of Christian Science.

My grandfather was healed through Christian Science of a severe case of rheumatism, which he had endured for many years. When my mother heard of this she was deeply impressed, and soon began to attend the church services in the small town where we lived that she might learn something of this new religion which healed.

Christian Science was presented to me nearly twenty years ago by one who proved to be a very dear friend, and at a time when I was facing what seemed to be a vacuous future. I had few, if any, resources from the mortal point of view.

I wish to give thanks for all the blessings I have received from my study of Christian Science. I have had great cause for rejoicing because of the unfoldment of spiritual truth which has made me a happier and more contented person.
