It is with a grateful heart that I herewith tell of the blessings and benefits which I have received through Christian Science. Two years ago, when this demonstrable truth was brought to my attention, I was freed from a number of ailments. I was suffering especially with severe headaches and rheumatism, which had held me in bondage for years, and for which I took drugs of all kinds, though without success.
For fourteen long years I almost lived on medicine of all sorts, so that according to the doctors' statement there was no hope in that direction; indeed, my system seemed to be transformed into a pharmacy. During the time of my affliction there were many people who tried to tell me about God, Truth, and all the things that are taught in Christian Science, but I then seemed unable to grasp their meaning. Through God's leading I found a young friend, who was the first to explain to me the subject in our mother tongue, and this was also the easiest way for him. Later on, when the German edition of the text-book appeared, I secured a copy, and was healed of all my diseases in eight months' time. The study of the Lesson-Sermon affords me the highest enjoyment, and I herewith give thanks to God, and gratefully remember Mrs. Eddy, the Discoverer of Christian Science. I have been completely restored physically and mentally, and I praise God for the innumerable blessings which He bestows upon us, especially for Christian Science, which came to this world as the Comforter that leads us into all truth.
