When the truth was presented to me over three years ago, by a sister who was a Scientist, it found me in a very pitiable condition indeed, with a little girl afflicted with bronchial and heart trouble. I had physical troubles of my own, and other members of my family were in poor financial circumstances. I was in such a discouraged state of mind that life did not seem worth the living. It would be a long story to tell every step of the way I have been led, but little by little I have gained an understanding with the good help I have received from practitioners and others, and I can say that my heart trouble has been destroyed, and other ailments are slowly but surely yielding to the power of Truth.

The physical benefits are, however, but a small part of the blessing received. The spiritual uplift and changed financial circumstances which have come as I have been able to realize that God is the source of all my supply, and that there is no lack to that supply, all testify to the power of Truth as revealed in Christian Science. With the aid of my sister and a friend I early began demonstrating the way for myself, for which I have often been thankful, as I have never lived near other Scientists and have oftentimes been placed where immediate help was necessary; but I have noticed that when I did ask for help, it came as soon as the decision was made, which proved the work to be of God. The children also have their little demonstrations in helping themselves and each other.

I wish to express a great sense of gratitude for this blessed truth, and that there was one good and pure enough to bring us the light. I have a deep sense of thankfulness for the patient, faithful practitioners, and all others who have helped me on my way.
