Testimonies of Healing

I am so grateful to Mary Baker Eddy. Along with her discovery and founding of Christian Science, she had such foresight to include an avenue of spiritual growth for those desiring a deeper understanding of this rich and fulfilling religion.

I wanted to join a branch Church of Christ, Scientist. Why? Because I’d had a healing through relying on Christian Science.

One day I felt a severe pain in my abdomen. The pain persisted and became alarming, so I prayed with the support of a Christian Science practitioner.

Healing comes at times when we need it most. We are never separate from God, divine Love, and this thought of God’s presence became clear to me one evening.

A few years ago , in the middle of a church meeting I was attending about ministering to those in prison, I suddenly felt quite ill and thought I might faint. When I felt able, I left the auditorium.

“The best sermon ever preached is Truth practised and demonstrated by the destruction of sin, sickness, and death,” writes Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures ( p. 201 ).

It was the Wednesday before Christmas several years ago. Running to catch the train home after work, I stepped off a curb wrong and twisted my ankle.

In the fall of 2022 , I attended an event that took place on a beach. When a friend arrived whom I hadn’t seen in a few years, we embraced with a big hug.

Last year as my adult son was about to go out to work, he said he couldn’t find something he needed. We were living together at the time and I offered to help look for it.

Motherhood is proving to be an incredible time for me to learn more about our Father-Mother God and how She cares for me and for all of us. I’ve practiced Christian Science my whole life, and it’s been natural to rely on God for my own health.
