Ever since I became interested in Christian Science, it has been a struggle at home and abroad for me to do or say anything in regard to this subject, but constant work and a never doubting or wavering trust in Christ's words, have won many a battle for me. There were hard battles between the flesh and Spirit, but had I understood the first commandment, the war would have ended sooner and not have been so severe. I had always been interested in religion, but I now see that I knew but little on that subject till Mrs. Eddy's book explained the Bible to me, and then I realized that I had seen "through a glass darkly." Now I see face to face,—with understanding.

In addition to the great spiritual uplifting I have received, I could mention innumerable other benefits. Severe stomach troubles, headaches, backaches, colds, sore throats, and almost all the ills that flesh is heir to, including a very serious case of despondency and grief, have been cured, and I have had cause to see how "all things work together for good to them that love God." Words cannot express the gratitude I feel to God, to our beloved Leader, and to my teacher for the understanding of Truth which has also enabled me to help others. My daily prayer is to become more worthy of the name I bear.
