Christian Science found me ready to bury my dearest...
Christian Science found me ready to bury my dearest earthly hope. Five years ago a little tract was sent me, entitled, "Is Your Prayer Answered?" After reading it, a Scientist loaned me Science and Health. The only conscious truth which I grasped upon its first persual, was the author's statement that its full meaning is not to be gained by a simple perusal of the book, and that it needs to be studied. After reading it through the second time I knew that Science and Health contained the truth which sets free. This true idea of Life instantaneously healed me of weak eyes, spinal trouble, constipation, and other diseases. After I was healed, some of the old complaints again threatened me, but in holding steadfastly to Truth these diseased conditions have been eliminated from my consciousness as no part of my true being, and as having no real entity or origin because they are not of God.
The understanding that God is too pure to behold in inquity, was a sweet revelation to me. It brought a holy, secret joy, and has enabled me to overcome many forms of selfishness, hatred, and vanity, and has conferred upon me many blessings. For this corrected sense of Life I owe deep gratitude to God, and to our Leader, Mrs. Eddy, This manifestation of Truth has caused many persons to investigate Christian Science, and I hopefully press onward, ever conscious of the Divine guidance.
