I have been impelled for some time to write of my healing, thinking that some one might be benefited thereby. I suffered with dyspepsia and nervous prostration for years. I tried ten different physicians, one of whom said I would go out of my mind. I became despondent and discouraged. I felt myself sinking in despair, longing for death, and thinking this would be a relief. It was in this dark hour that Christian Science came to my rescue. A friend loaned me a copy of The Christian Science Journal, and by reading it I was helped. I read in it about many being healed by studying "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy, and I bought this book. In less than three months I was healed by reading it. When first I heard of Christian Science, I heard it was a terrible religion. I belived that the spiritual part was all right, but said it would take a two-edged sword to get me to see into the healing; not knowing, at the time I was talking, that Christian Science is the Word of God which does separate error from truth. My friend asked me if I would like to go with her to the Christian Science church. I said, "Yes, I will go; but if they do not read the Bible I will not stay." There and then it was proved to be the religion of Jesus Christ. My heart was soon overflowing with gratitude that I had found a God of Love who does heal from both sin and sickness. I am grateful for the many blessings that have been brought into my life; every breath I draw owe to Christian Science.—Ellen Sherwin, Port Hope, Ont.
