Testimonies of Healing
Since 1912, the year in which I had my first healing through Christian Science, I have turned to no other physician in time of sickness, accidents, or trouble of any kind, than the great and only Physician, God. As we have a family of four boys, there have been many problems to meet.
In the past twenty-five years Christian Science has never failed me when rightly applied. Perhaps no one was ever more antagonistic to what he thought Christian Science to be than I, for I had never read one line of Christian Science literature, but instead had read destructive criticism.
It is a great pleasure for me to be able to verify my mother's many wonderful healings in Christian Science. I have been a pupil in the Christian Science Sunday School for five years, and for this blessing I am deeply grateful.
Before the complete and permanent healing of a member of my family, I was much prejudiced against what I then thought was Christian Science. I loved, and shall always love, the church of which I was a member and which had done so much for me and for my children.
It is time for me to show my gratitude to Christian Science for the healings and comfort I have received during a period of seven years and a half. It would take too long to tell them all, but of the first experience, which led me into this wonderful truth, I should like to write.
When Christian Science is studied and applied as it is given to us by our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, it will be impossible to avoid the good that will come to us. I speak from actual experience.
Early in 1920 my health began to fail. I had very little faith in drugs, and still less in Christian Science, of which I knew little, although I thought I knew much.
I am grateful for Christian Science and all it has done for me. I am the boy who was healed of the cut from broken glass.
It was not on account of physical healing that I became interested in Christian Science. Twenty-one years ago I heard of this Science and tried to close my ears to it.
In childhood my first healing in Christian Science was of a painful boil. The quick relief brought to their little one at this time strengthened the faith of my father and my mother in the course they had entered upon.
