By what seemed to be an unjust force of circumstances...

By what seemed to be an unjust force of circumstances I went to a far distant city to make my own way in the world. It was some time after I arrived in this strange place before I secured a paying situation. I therefore spent my leisure time among my friends whom I had formerly known in the East. They had all become Christian Scientists after coming West to live. Not being prejudiced against any belief which seemed to help my brother-man, I became interested. As time passed, and the contents of my pocket-book diminished, the words, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you," became impressed upon my thought, and I found myself seeking the kingdom through the study of Science and Health, by that grand and courageous apostle of Truth to this age, Mrs. Eddy. I received treatment, and long before I felt that I had any scientific knowledge of the kingdom, a good situation was "added unto" me. It is now over two years since I first began studying, and only lately have I felt that I was attaining an understanding, but blessings have poured upon me all that time. It is in gratitude to God that I write this testimonial of the care of divine Love which has so fully met my need.—Harriet E. Swett, San Francisco, Cal.
