Just ten years ago this month I accepted Christian Science and the promise, "Ye shall know the Truth, and the Truth shall make you free," was realized and I was no longer in bondage to fear of pain which had seemed so constant in my back for seven years. After being healed, I felt it was selfish to keep this wonderful truth to myself, so I visited my friends who were in bondage to fear and suffering and told them about Christian Science. Some who have since proved it true, were not then ready to accept it; while others accepted it joyfully at once and were healed.

My father had been an invalid for many years. I knew in my own strength I could do nothing, but I also knew that all things are possible with God, and I at last persuaded him to allow me to treat him.

His affliction, paralysis and spinal trouble, did not seem real to me, as I knew my father was God's perfect idea in reality, and I knew that if I could lose sight of self and realize that God had finished His work and pronounced it good, my father would be healed.
