Testimonies of Healing
I wish to express my gratitude for Christian Science. Each experience in my life has helped me to realize more and more what a great privilege I have had in being brought up in this Science since I was a child, and in being able to attend and work for a Christian Science church.

During the twenty-three years in which I have been acquainted with Christian Science I have had much reason for gratitude. I was entered in the Sunday school when I was about three and consequently grew up unhampered by many of the false laws and theories regarding man's well-being, and was given a firm foundation in the truth—a foundation on which I have been able to build upward, and for which I am daily grateful.

" Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. " Christian Science teaches us how to recognize and bring all our tithes unto God, and so to open the windows of harmony and banish all fear, sickness, lack, sin, and hate; and to know the absolute presence of perfection surrounding, enfolding, and protecting us constantly.
