It is with the deepest gratitude to our loving Father-Mother God, and a desire to help others as I have been helped, that I recount a few of the many blessings Christian Science has brought to me. About two years ago I was healed, after suffering for twenty years, of acute attacks of sickness and pain for which doctors and specialists could do nothing but relieve with an opiate. After my healing in Christian Science, I gave up my bath chair,—which I had used for a great many years, and entirely for the last few, always taking it with me when I went away,—for now I can walk wherever I need to go.
Two years ago I was instantaneously helped in a severe attack of hemorrhage of the lungs, for I felt no pain, inconvenience, or loss of voice, taking my meals as usual. I was down-stairs the third day, out the fifth, and attended an evening Christian Science lecture about the tenth day. When a much less severe attack occurred some years ago I was in bed for weeks, quite an invalid for the rest of the year, and under the doctor's care.
Lately I had the great privilege of class instruction, and am deeply grateful for the good I received. My desire is that I may gain a still better understanding, so that I may be able to help others. I realize that God is indeed all Love, and although the physical help I have received is very beautiful, it is nothing in comparison with the spiritual uplift and the realization of God's presence and protecting care through which this fear and other troubles have been largely overcome.
