Every day I have fresh cause to declare, "Who is so great a God as our God." This truth is clearly shown us by our beloved Leader in all her writings, and I could not tell of the health and all other blessings that have come to me through the study of Christian service.

It was more than four years ago that I took my first treatment, and I can testify to Truth's healing power. All of my life I had been weak and delicate. For seven years previous to my healing through Christian Science I had been a confirmed invalid, a constant sufferer from a complication of diseases. Physicians had told me that there was not a sound organ in my body. They would promise temporary relief, but no one thought I could be permanently healed. With each trial of a different physician hope was followed by disappointment, for not once did I find relief from the suffering. At the time I turned to Christian Science I was under the care of two physicians and attended by a nurse. I had exhausted every material remedy within our means. These physicians told me that if I were under their treatment for twelve months or longer, in a sanitarium, I would be improved but not well.

At this time a friend of my husband urged me to try Christian Science treatment, assuring me of the benefit which others had received. I knew nothing of Christian Science in any way, though after reading a copy of the Journal for a week, I sent for a practitioner. After a short talk with her I decided I would try it. With the first treatment I was greatly improved. I dismissed my physicians and nurse threw all my medicines away, and trusted absolutely to the power of Truth. My healing was not immediate, but for this I am now grateful. As my thought "grew, and waxed strong in spirit," my body responded, and today I am a healthy, happy woman and have been so for several years.
