Mrs. Eddy brought happiness to thousands of people

Mrs. Eddy brought happiness to thousands of people. Whether they are imagining that happiness, or whether it will be temporary or lasting, is begging the question. Through her writings and the creed she founded, people weary in body and soul and mind have found rest when they could not find it elsewhere. Therein she did a vast amount of good. Humanity is decidedly her debtor. There is no question about her being the most wonderful woman of her day and generation. She won the faith of thousands of intelligent people, and they found in that faith what they had been groping about for in medicine and other religions. That was enough for them, and the best endorsement she could have secured.
