The calmness, zeal, and heaven-born love manifested by the Christian Scientists whom I first met, appealed to me as being the expression of the holiness for which I longed. When I was told that God is Principle, and that Christian Scientists look to Him in every time of need, I saw at once that they were practising the teachings of the Bible. A great hope and joy came over me when I realized that a new world of absolute goodness is made practical through this truth. That the Bible has become a new book to me is proven by my constant desire to read it. It is becoming my daily guide. Three years have elapsed since I first heard of Christian Science, and great spiritual uplifting has come to me from its teachings. The mental weight of discouragement and discontent with the world has been destroyed, and in place thereof is a correct understanding of God and man's relation to Him.

Oftentimes my heart goes out in gratitude to God, and to the Revelator of Truth in this age, for the goodness and purity which is brought to human consciousness through Christian Science. When I think of the happiness, joy, and peace that has been mine since coming to a knowledge of Christian Science, a deep sense of pity comes over me for those who are slow to acknowledge, or who even resist the Comforter which is filling my every-day life with the sweet sense of Emanuel, "God with us."
