Physical and Spiritual Benefits Received

F. E. C.

After having had recourse to what are termed the best medical methods, and long-continued treatment, from the medical fraternity, the finale was reached, and their diagnosis concluded with the decision which strikes terror to every one, that a surgical operation, with all that term implies, was the only thing that could give me a single chance to live. Before this conclusion was reached by my physicians, I had, through my sister, who is a Scientist, been induced to read Science and Health. I reluctantly purchased a copy, and in the same spirit commenced to read it. I had no faith, and maintained a very antagonistic attitude toward Christian Science. At last my sufferings became unbearable and medicine had entirely failed to give me even temporary relief. In this terrible condition, my sister advised me to employ a healer. I did so and at the same time began to read earnestly and faithfully in Science and Health.

As soon as I was willing to acknowledge my selfishness, pride, and egotism, my healing was rapid. I could fully understand the words of our blessed Master, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God." In proportion as I was willing to sacrifice the pleasures of the senses, I was benefited. Today I am healed physically and changed spiritually.

My disease was fibroid tumor, and a very severe case of headache of twenty-five years standing. Through the teachings of Science and Health and the loving and patient work of my dear healer, I am to-day, free.
