I wish to give my testimony of what Christian Science has done for me, mentally, physically, and spiritually. It has given me comfort, endurance, satisfaction, and assurance; has healed me of false appetites, an impatient and irritable disposition said to be due to physical conditions, and of many other tendencies characteristic of mortal mind. I have been healed of a severe case of chronic bronchitis considered hereditary, of liver trouble and bowel disorder. The very strongest medicine had been used for the last difficulty but had come to be almost non-effective. Stomach trouble, rheumatism, extreme nervousness, bladder trouble, and other physical conditions have also yielded to the power of Truth. I had tried physicians of different schools, also all kinds of medicines, as well as change of climate.

The last physical examination and diagnosis that I underwent was merely to satisfy a sister-in-law who felt that her physician would be able to benefit me. He told her that my condition was serious and my recovery doubtful; that I had a serious catatthal condition of the whole system, added to the other troubles. Although thinking my condition hopeless, I turned to Christian Science for healing, and in a little less than two weeks almost all these diseases were gone, and today I am in perfect health. A case of blood-poisoning with very high fever was overcome in just a short time.

Spiritually I have been brought closer to God, have an uplifted, purer sense of righteousness and of what it means to be a Christian than I ever had before I knew of Christian Science. While I am indeed appreciative and grateful for relief from physical suffering, I am more grateful for the spiritual regeneration and revelation that I have found in Christian Science. I am striving daily to assimilate more of the Christ-spirit, that I may be able to do these works.
