Permanently Healed by Christian Science

J. A. M.

Sixteen years ago my attention was first called to the possibility of healing the body by divine Power. It came to me then as a most beautiful possibility, and I eargerly listened and read everything I could find on the subject. Reading the Bible with this thought in mind I soon became convinced that the teaching was according to Jesus' teaching and practice.

At this time I was suffering from an aggravated stomach trouble which gave me no peace or comfort save when, sleeping, and then only to return upon awakening. I was astonished, however, to find that although I was so willing to be healed and that God was so willing to heal, yet I experienced no help. I studied and sought and prayed; the anguish and disappointment I experienced no one knows, only those who in a measure have seen the Truth and have not had the understanding to demonstrate it. Year after year went by, and although I did not seem to derive any benefit, yet I could not let go of this Truth which, in spite of seeming defeat, was gaining a stronger hold upon my consciousness.
