When I look back over the last four years,—those blessed years in which God has proved Himself to us an ever-present help,—I do not know what special mercy to relate. Among the conuntless ones, I can hardly say which was the greatest, so I will go back to the beginning,—to the first dawning of the truth. One morning I was sitting with my baby, then three years old, in my lap, her little body all burning with fever and her little face so listless. In front of us stood the medicine chest, with its rows of little glass idols. I had given her some pellets of an old stand-by remedy, and had said to her, "Now God will make my baby better," when, all of a sudden, her eyes grew bright and looking up at me with such a puzzled look, she said. "You are really playing you are God, aren't you, mamma?" That was all, but how much there was to me in those words! How clear it all seemed. I had heard quite a little about Christian Science from my sister, but had fought against it with might and main; but now, the scales had fallen from my eyes. No more should my children's sweet trust be shaken. No more would I lead them astray. I had never known how much I could learn from them. "And a little child shall lead them."—Aimee Young, Pasadena, Cal.
