From Atheism to Understanding

E. S. F.

I had no faith in Christian Science when I first went for treatment, and I was therefore surprised when I found relief after the first treatment from an incessant and severe backache with which I had suffered for many years. But as I learned to know something of the Science I was not surprised when this trouble disappeared entirely.

Before coming into Christian Science I was an atheist. Now I not only believe in God, but it is my privilege to understand Him in a measure. This understanding of God, as revealed in Christian Science, I have found to be a powerful agency in dispelling errors of every sort in my daily life, and and I would like to add for the benefit of those who are just turning to Christian Science, that even a very little understanding is more powerful than anything you have ever used to destroy the ills of the flesh and mind. Do not fail to use what you know, and it will surprise you with its power.

As an illustration of this fact I will say that when I was very young in Science, I was able to heal a girl of inflammatory rheumatism of long standing; and I think I knew at the time little more than the statement: God being infinite Good there is no room for anything else; but I was so well convinced of this fact that her trouble was destroyed. Try it yourselves, dear friends, and see what it will do for you.
