Testimonies of Healing

Fifteen years ago, when in great physical and mental need after a general breakdown, I became interested in Christian Science and was prevailed upon to purchase the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. This step I shall always be grateful for.

I too wish to add a word of gratitude for all that Christian Science has done for me and mine. I am especially grateful for the Christian Science Sunday School, which our two daughters have the privilege of attending, for there they are learning to build on a sure foundation.

Over twenty years ago I found the "pearl of great price" through the study and application of Christian Science. A near neighbor who was just beginning the study called my attention to it, and lent me some of the literature.

Many times I have felt I should like to tell the world what Christian Science has done for me and mine. Six years ago we were in despair, for my husband was suffering from a growth in the throat which the doctors could not cure.

I became interested in Christian Science fifteen years ago through a neighbor who had had a beautiful healing. She was so grateful, she gave me some Christian Science literature to read.

In appreciation of the many blessings which I have received through the application of Christian Science I offer this testimony. God has been my only physician in the past few years, and He has never failed me at any time.

On page 306 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, occurs this statement: "Undisturbed amid the jarring testimony of the material senses, Science, still enthroned, is unfolding to mortals the immutable, harmonious, divine Principle,—is unfolding Life and the universe, ever present and eternal. " For twenty-four years I have been a student of this Science, and during this time the unfolding spoken of above has been going on in my consciousness with healing results.

My first healing after taking up the study of Christian Science was that of intense grief. A great sense of loss gripped me after my husband passed on very suddenly.

Christian Science came into my life when I was a girl of about sixteen years of age. I had suffered from a catarrhal condition for a number of years, as well as from other physical disturbances.

One of the blessings for which I can express sincere gratitude has been the privilege of reading the testimonies of healing appearing in the periodicals, for it was through this channel that divine Love guided me when all human aid failed; and the desire to read them and rejoice with those who are demonstrating the healing efficacy of Christian Science has grown through the years. My first experience of the application of the truth as taught by our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, was truly a revelation to me, as I had not believed such a proof possible in this world.
