Testimonies of Healing
AFTER being absent from all church services for more than ten years, we moved to a neighboring state, and there I began to attend the Christian Science church with my husband, who had just become interested in this Science. I did not expect to use it as a healing agency, though prior to this move four operations had seriously reduced our finances.
IT is with a deep sense of gratitude for all that Christian Science has done for me, and in the hope that it may help others, that I give this testimony. When Christian Science was presented to me by a friend, I was in a very poor state of health, and had been under medical treatment for two and a half years for diabetes.
ABOUT two years ago I was instantaneously healed of heart trouble. One afternoon, when shopping in the city, I felt faint and nearly lost consciousness.
IT is with a deep sense of gratitude and joy that I testify to the healing efficacy of Christian Science. Eleven years ago I was suffering both physically and mentally from that which to medical doctors seemed to be quick consumption.
WITH a heart full of gratitude I wish to tell of the wonderful help and guidance I have received from a sincere study of Christian Science during a very trying experience in my life. Like all my compatriots in Russia, during the Bolshevist revolution, I was deprived of my possessions, which were many.
" CALL upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee. and thou shalt glorify me.
IT is some years since I first held our wonderful textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, lent me by a dear relative. Within a month I had purchased my own Science and Health and had become an earnest student.
I HAVE received so much help from reading the testimonies in the Journal and Sentinel that I desire to express my gratitude to God and to our revered Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, for all Christian Science has done for me. Twenty years ago, when I took up the study of Christian Science, I was a physical wreck, suffering from bronchial asthma and stomach trouble.
I SHOULD no longer withhold my written word of gratitude for many healings in Christian Science, which has been my only physician for many years. Our little daughter, now seven years old, was a most trying child from babyhood.
ON page 402 of the Christian Science textbook Mrs. Eddy says, "Christian Science is always the most skilful surgeon, but surgery is the branch of its healing which will be last acknowledged.
