During the ten years of my journey "from sense to Soul"...

Jeannette Clayton

During the ten years of my journey "from sense to Soul" (Science and Health, p. 566), or in other words, since I began the study and application of Christian Science, so many blessings have come into my life that it would take much time and space to tell of them all. Nor can I ever put into words what Christian Science really means to me. Its revelation, sustained by demonstration, of what God is and of what man is in his relation to Him, has opened to me a vista of thought and spiritual research, the earnest pursuit of which leads up to the highest standard of being.

All my life I had groped about for a God whom I could understand and love; in my inmost heart I felt that somehow, somewhere, there was such a God, but how to find Him or draw near to Him I did not know. All about me I saw sickness, sin, and misery of every description; everywhere evil seemed to be more powerful than good. This condition of thought continued until I came to Christian Science, though I came to it merely for physical healing. I was then living in Chicago, and it was there that I received my first glimpse of this glorious truth. I love to recall my entrance into Christian Science, and to compare my last visit to the doctor with my first visit to a Christian Science practitioner. Both occurred on the same day.
