Christian Science has brought me such peace mentally

M. R.

Christian Science has brought me such peace mentally. morally, and spiritually, that I feel words to be inadequate to voice the love and gratitude which are in our home. I had been reading Christian Science literature for about two years when I decided to take treatment. After the first treatment I found such opposition in the home that I decided to discontinue it, at least for the present. I suffered from female trouble in its most aggravated form, and our physician was then called, and after diagnosing the case, said that unless I remained in bed for at least six months I might expect to be an invalid for the rest of my life. It is unnecessary to dwell on the suffering which followed, suffice it to say in a week's time my husband was called West, and after his departure I realized that I was alone,—alone with God to seek what I felt was contained in Christian Science. The following four months I spent in reading, and in silencing thoughts of suffering. Twice during that time the suffering was so intense that I thought of resuming treatment, but each time it ceased before I could reach the practitioner, so that I returned home and continued with my own work, and before my husband returned in September I was healed. The peace which accompanied those four months of research and introspection I would not part with if I could. "Unity of Good," Science and Health, and other works by our beloved Leader, Mrs. Eddy, were my sole guides to health, harmony, and heaven on earth.

Before closing I wish to express my gratitude and love to our dear Leader, to the Publishing Society for its faithful labor for the Cause, and to the many earnest workers in the Field.—M. R., New York, N. Y.
