About six years ago I was led to Christian Science by one of my neighbors. I was a great sufferer, to mortal sense, and I was very much afraid of lightning. I was alone one day and went to my neighbor's door to ask if I could stay with her till a storm was over. She said she would like to have me come in, as I had only lived there a few weeks and had not become acquainted with her. She gave me some Christian Science literature to read, and I was very eager to learn of something which would heal me. I never had to leave my home after that day because of my fear of storms. I learned of my relation to God through Christian Science, and found that perfect love casteth out fear. I had tried many doctors and patent medicines, but all proved of no avail to me. I threw away all material means for this great truth that makes free, and by reading Science and Health, and having three treatments, I was healed of several ailments. I am very grateful for the physical healing, but yet more rejoiced over the moral and spiritual uplifting. I have seen many proofs of the power of Truth over error in my own home and elsewhere. I feel that I have found the pearl of great price which is for all who will accept it.

My gratitude is more than I can express to God who has revealed the truth to our dear Leader and to this age. I thank my brothers and sisters all over the world for the beautiful thoughts I receive through our periodicals.
