Testimony of Healing October 5, 1912 Issue

Willie Byron Gray

I would be ungrateful indeed did I fail to mention some of the many blessings of which I have been the happy recipient since taking up the study of Christian Science, I did not come to it for physical help, although I needed it, but took it up for the purpose of investigating its teachings, of which I had heard. I met a stranger, and upon being informed through a fellow workman that he was a Christian Scientist, I asked him if he would give me some of the literature. He said that he would be glad to do so, and in compliance with my request he brought me several copies of the Sentinel, telling me to read them and pass them on to others.

After reading the testimonies of healing in the Sentinel I was so thoroughly convinced that I went without delay to the Christian Science reading-room, and purchased a copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy, which I consider the best investment I have ever made. It is indeed the "pearl of great price," for through the reading of this book I was healed of the tobacco habit of nearly twenty years' standing. I had tried for years to refrain from the habit, and had used every material remedy of which I could hear, together with will-power; but they one and all failed me. When, however, began to read Science and Health, the desire for tobacco left me without a struggle.

I had suffered for years with kidney and bladder troubles, also severe headaches, all of which disappeared when the light of Truth began to dawn upon my slumbering consciousness, and I realized that none of these ills were the creations of God, who is infinite good, and who knows no evil. These are only a few of the blessings which have come to me; I could mention many more, and still the half would not be told. Christian Science is the greatest blessing I have ever known, and I am grateful to God, "from whom all blessings flow," also to Mrs. Eddy, through whom this greatest gift of the ages has been brought within the reach of all mankind, namely, the healing and saving truth known to the world as Christian Science.
