Words cannot express my gratitude for all that Christian Science...

Rosa Brown

Words cannot express my gratitude for all that Christian Science has done for me. For over twenty years I suffered from severe headaches and stomach trouble, for which I took medicine constantly. I used to buy the medicine by the pound, but there were times when for days all the nourishment I could take was lime water and milk. In June, 1904, I first read "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." I am a German and do not read or write well in English, so understood only a little of what I read in our text-book, but I soon realized that the headaches were gone. I stopped taking medicine for the stomach trouble, and found I could eat anything I liked and whenever I wanted to do so, without bad effects. The following January I took my first Christian Science treatment, and was instantaneously healed of bowel trouble of many years' standing. Last August I was taken very ill with a fever, and through the help of a practitioner I was completely healed in a few weeks; whereas some years before, when I was sick with the same disease, I was under a physician's care for eight months before I was relieved.

All that I have and all that I am I owe to Christian Science. I am very thankful for our text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by our beloved Leader. While the physical help has been very marked. I am, if possible, more grateful for the spiritual uplifting,—the understanding of God as Life, Truth, Love. I am also glad that Mrs. Eddy was ready to explain to the world this truth which heals the sick as well as the sinner, just as it did when Jesus was on the earth. I can only say "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."—Rosa Brown, San Francisco, Cal.
