A little over two years ago one of my daughters suffered from an injury of the spine which gave her severe pain, so that she was unable to stand upright, and this continued for several months. Our physician said it would take a very long time to cure her, in fact he was not sure she could be cured at all. She was not able to attend to her business, and went from home for a few weeks.
While away she met with a lady who told her of Christian Science; she, however, would not have anything to do with it until she had first consulted her parents. On going to see her the following Saturday I was shown the book. Science and Health, but could not then decide whether or not it was a proper book for her to read, so took it home with me and read a little. I returned the book, telling her to read and study it well for herself. In the mean time the lady had given her the address of a Scientist in Manchester, and my wife went at once to see her. Our daughter received treatment, and was able in about two months' time to return to business quite well and happy. Our experience in Christian Science did not, however, end here; my wife and I began to study the book, and as a consequence the whole family have been greatly benefited. One was cured of ulcerated stomach, and another has left glasses which she had worn for some years. My wife was, before this, a physical wreck, but she never enjoyed better health than at the present time. I believed I could scarcely exist without medicine for indigestion, but, thanks to a little knowledge of Christian Science, the medicine and the indigestion disappeared about two years ago.
These are, of course, only a few of the blessings which are visible to all around us, but if this testimony ended here the half would not be told. The spiritual uplifting is past description. We are daily experiencing the ever-presence of Love, who healeth all our diseases, and we are now enabled to see God, good,—reflected everywhere,—a real presence, a truly helpful friend.
