Through the solicitation of a dear brother to try Christian Science,...
Through the solicitation of a dear brother to try Christian Science, as a last help for a serious affection of the knees, I became willing in January, 1903, to do so. After two months' study of that beloved book, "Science and Health with Key to the scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy, I was freed from the bondage of wearing steel and leather braces, which I had done for two years. During this time I had also to submit to a painful operation, and had used crutches for six months previous. In consultations with some of the best surgeons in the West, I was met with the statement, "You can never hope to be well." Many other ailments have also been overcome, such as sore throat, rheumatism, serious female trouble, and the constant wearing of eyeglasses for five years. One of these was slow in yielding, but I can now say that even this has seemed for the best, since it has helped me to seek the more earnestly for this blessed truth which makes free indeed. When surrounded by storms of mortal mind these words have come to me as a peaceful benediction, "If God be for us, who can be against us?"
My love and praise to God, and my gratitude to our beloved Leader, can best be expressed by walking in the footsteps of the great Wayshower, and thereby proving worthy of the name, "A Christian Scientist." Carolyn Voight, Elko, Nev.
