Demonstrations of the Power of Truth

M. A. S.

The Journal is such a welcome, helpful visitor that gladly to I send in my tribute to its worth. Recently a near and dear relative became an earnest student of Christian Science, after having been under the doctor's care for two months for serious kidney trouble. The Journal and Sentinel were great aids to him in his search for Truth. Every question he asked was answered in one or the other of these valuable publications, and it seemed I had but to sit still and see how beautifully Intelligence supplies that which is needed.

A few weeks' study of Science and Health and reading the Journal and Sentinel, followed by a few treatments, produced a great change, and this dear one is now restored to health. The doctor pronounced him incurable, told me that he could alleviate his trouble, but not cure him, that the first cold he took would send him back into the condition he was then in. Christian Science not only healed him physically, but mentally and spiritually, and to-day, although seventy years old, he looks twenty years younger than he did six months ago, and says he feels better than he has for that number of years. The smoking habit of forty years duration, was overcome without effort, after about two weeks reading of our text-book. When he commenced this study, he could not read a word without his glasses; now he reads pages and forgets to put them on. The thought of extreme weakness was overcome upon reading some words on "Strength," written by one of our authorized lecturers on Christian Science. How all-potent is Truth!

A gentleman, who has been opposed to the Christian Science movement, having seen this practical proof of its healing power, said to me, "I take off my hat to you, or to Christian Science, or whatever it was that made grandpa look so well." This, in itself, is to me a demonstration, for only a few months ago he said he liked to have me visit his wife, but he did wish I would leave my Christian Science at home.
