With loving gratitude do I testify to what Christian Science has done for me. Nearly eleven years ago, after having been in ill health for about twenty years, I had practically exhausted all material remedies, and was no better. I then considered that I was spending my last summer on earth, and had grown very thin and weak, when I was advised to try Christian Science by a friend who loaned me her copy of Science and Health. I made up my mind that I would read the book, regardless of what any one should say about it, and I soon felt that it was a wonderful book. There was a great deal which I did not understand at that time, but my desire was to gain an understanding of it, so I read on until I lost sight of myself, and in four or five weeks, when I did think of myself, I was well. I could not remember when I had last felt an ache or pain, and I began to realize how well I was feeling; that I could eat anything I wished with perfect freedom, and that I rested well at night. No tongue could express the joy and peace I felt; to think that I was a well woman after so many years of ill health! I was healed of heart and stomach trouble, of neuralgia and female trouble, also of a general nervous breakdown. My eyes also were healed, and I have never needed glasses since then.

I am certainly very grateful for Christian Science, and for what it has done and is doing for me every day. It has helped me very much in the overcoming of fear, and in many other ways. Christian Science has not only helped me, but it has enabled me to help others, and I am indeed grateful for many demonstrations of the power of Truth; also for the spiritual awakening which Christian Science has brought to me. I am thankful to God, and also to our dear Leader, who has given us this truth.
