Before hearing of Christian Science, I had many proofs that God hears and answers prayer, but these glimpses of the power and love of God were not understood, for every one seemed a great miracle and left me uncertain as to whether others would follow. Now, with the understanding of God that our dear Leader has given us through "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," I have the consciousness of God's unfailing care, and do not doubt that He is always leading me. It is very clear that because God is the only presence, the only power, He is able to supply all our needs.

Christian Science came to our home over six years ago in direct answer to prayer. Kneeling by the bedside of one very dear to me, I silently and earnestly asked God to show me the way to relieve this apparently hopeless suffering. It seemed impossible to witness the endurance of such pain any longer, and medical aid had been sought for years with but little success.

An hour after, an old friend mentioned Christian Science to me, and although he was unable to tell much about it. I knew this was my answer, so did not hesitate to walk in the path opened. God's blessing surely followed, for to this member of our family came instantaneous healing, and the rest of us have since received our share. All God's promises are illumined through Christian Science, and we learn how to prove each one. We must look to our part of the covenant with God; He never fails in His. His laws are unvarying through all ages; it only remains for us to know and obey them.
