Testimonies of Healing
For many years I suffered with diseased eyes. The most eminent eye specialists in this city not only failed to give any relief, but they also failed to agree on a diagnosis, finally dooming me to total blindness.
With profound gratitude I wish to testify to all the love and goodness which my relatives and I have experienced in Christian Science. When I first heard of it I had always been sickly.
Like every other student of Christian Science, I find it difficult to express the love and gratitude which I feel for our revered Leader, Mrs. Eddy, for discovering and founding Christian Science.
Words cannot express my gratitude for the healing truth which has been revealed to me through Christian Science. Over eleven years ago Christian Science was brought to my notice.
About thirteen years ago a small growth appeared on my neck. At first I paid little attention to it; but as it became larger and quite painful, and manifested conditions made very familiar to me while caring for a dear one who had passed on with what reputable physicians had named cancer, I became filled with intense fear.
Christian Science came into my experience over ten years ago as the answer to prayer. I had given up my former religion, having failed to find any satisfaction in it, but I had a deep and sincere desire to know the truth about God.
I wish to mention a case of hemorrhoids which was healed in Christian Science several years ago. Before coming into Christian Science I had used many remedies, and had even undergone an operation, but with little, if any, relief.
" Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy was put in the pocket of my overcoat by a dear sister, with the suggestion that I might find something useful therein.
With great gratitude and joy I wish to relate the blessings I have received in Christian Science. Since childhood I had suffered from chronic constipation, together with many other evils, such as headaches, neuralgia, and nervousness.
I came into Christian Science through gratitude for the healing of my mother. I was thirteen years of age at the time, and after her healing I went to her with eyes filled with tears of gratitude and asked if I might not go to the Christian Science Sunday School.
