B. S. Josselyn

It is nearly five years since I bought my first copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," the reading of which cured me of chronic constipation, nervous headache, astigmatism, and hernia, in less than four months. I spoke through our columns at the time, of this wonderful result of conscientious study and application of the truth as taught in Christian Science, and now after four more years of health and happiness I wish to reaffirm what was said at that time.

I have had no return of those conditions, and am better prepared than ever to endorse the statement made by our beloved Leader, that "The same affection, desire, and motives which have stimulated true Christianity in all ages, and given impulse to goodness, in or out of the Church, have nerved her purpose to build on the new-born conception of the Christ, as Jesus declared himself, namely, the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Living a true life, casting out evil, healing the sick, and preaching the Gospel of Truth, these are the ends of Christianity" (No and Yes, p. 21).

Where would I be now, had not this blessed truth been brought to me by much persuasion of a very dear friend? I should certainly have been deep in the slough of despond, if not in the grave. Am I truly thankful for all the good that has come to me and mine? I try to let my works testify of that; but to those whom I do not meet in person, I can truly say, Yes; I am indeed more thankful than words can express for the glorious healing that has come to me, both physical, mental, and moral, and I also convey herein, my song of gratitude to the dear Leader who has through her fidelity to Truth enabled me to touch at least the hem of Christ's garment.
