Before I came into Christian Science, my heart was troubled very often with the thought that my profession of Christianity was anything but satisfactory. I knew well that I did not have the peace of which Jesus spoke. Ten months ago, through Christian Science, I found the peace for which I had been looking, although for some years I had given up trying to find it. My heart is full of gratitude to God, and to our dear Leader who made it possible for me to see and understand in part God's great love to man. I did not come to this Science for the physical healing, but I very soon found that sickness is no more of God's creating than is sin, and that both have to be destroyed. With four children I found plenty of work to do, as one ailment after another presented itself. Bronchitis, scarlet fever, measles, stomach trouble, earache, and chicken-pox have been met and overcome by the truth. In the case of scarlet fever, I found myself afraid, so called in a practitioner. The child was up and dressed every day, with no bad symptoms except a sense of weakness, which gave way at the third treatment. The practitioner handled contagion so well that none of the others took it, although they were always together. Seeing one disease after the other go out under the blaze of Truth, has given me a clearer and firmer understanding of God's allness. There are many other demonstrations I could give, for I utilize this Science every day and for everything. My prayer is, that my life may prove my gratitude to God, to Jesus the Wayshower, and to our dear Leader.

It is now fourteen years since I was healed by reading "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy. From childhood I was always considered delicate, and as I grew up I had a lame side and sick-headache which troubled me once or twice a week. I had also another ailment, for which I never went to a physician, as I dreaded the thought of taking medicine. I am happy to say that all these troubles have disappeared by reading Science and Health, and words fail to express my gratitude to Mrs. Eddy, its author, for the many blessings I have received through Christian Science.
