Testimonies of Healing

From the December 1902 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Early in the spring of 1901, I noticed great difficulty in hearing sounds with my right ear. Instead of applying my best understanding of Christian Science to correct the false claim, for a month or so I paid little attention to it. Within six weeks from the first appearance of deafness, I heard nothing but loud noises except with my left ear, which never failed in the least. I did not voice the trouble to any person. With the approach of fine weather, I, once or twice, found myself admitting, Fine weather will surely aid me in demonstrating the nothingness of this false claim. In each instance, I almost instantly denied that fine weather could aid me, well knowing there is but one Healer and that one is divine Principle.

Our beautiful summer came and passed and fall with its stormy days. Still I did not hear even loud sounds with my right ear. Late in the summer two gentlemen friends mentioned having lost each the hearing of his right ear. This aroused me to action, but it was not until the stormy days of winter came that I found I was recovering my hearing through applying Christian Science. Within a week of my first realization of the fact that my earnest appeal to divine Principle according to the teachings of Christian Science was being rewarded, I found my hearing perfectly restored. That was nine months ago. Since that time I hear perfectly with both ears. I cannot close without expressing my gratitude to the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science for what she has done for all who have listened to her teachings as set forth in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures."
