Emily Giessner

Since childhood I had asked questions that never seemed to get satisfactory answers, and I was constantly looking for something that would satisfy. After marriage my thoughts seemed to be diverted into other channels for a time. When about the age of thirty the old longing came back with greater force than ever. I wanted to know what I was living for, and what I was bringing my children up to be. To live, merely to die in the end after passing through troubles and trials, did not seem right, and I could find no help or satisfactory explanation from the varied doctrines of the churches.

This went on for about five years, the darkness and mental suffering increasing all the time. Looking from the mortal standpoint I had every reason to be satisfied and thankful. I had a good husband, home, children, and health. My constant searching brought Christian Science to my notice. I learned where services were held and soon found it to be that for which I had so long been seeking.

I began the study of Science and Health and other writings of our dear Leader, Mrs. Eddy, in earnest, and now, after about three years' work, I can truthfully say I am happy and contented far beyond my expectations. I have also proven for myself that Christian Science is as good for physical as for mental suffering.
