After four doctors had told me I would never be well without an operation, and after nearly six years of indecision, I finally consented to have it performed, and with the doctor's help was getting in physical condition to withstand the shock.

I had suffered so much that it seemed as if death would be a relief; but God had blessed me with three children, and my daily prayer was to be allowed to stay with them so as to train their little feet in the paths of righteousness.

Christian Science came as an answer to that prayer. A dear friend brought the truth home to me in such a convincing manner that then and there I knew that God's promises could be relied upon. For three days I simply devoured the Sentinel she gave me. There I found the quotation from Science and Health (p. 494), "Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need." I kept my next appointment with the doctor, asking God for help to break the news gently to him; but after a thorough examination he informed me that an operation would not be necessary now. Divine Love had not failed me! After a few weeks I called on a Christian Science practitioner for relief from a condition of eighteen years' standing, and in a very short time was healed of that and many other ailments. I thank God daily for the Christian Science literature, which gives me a better understanding of His word.
