With a grateful heart I would tell of the healing and regenerating power of infinite Mind as revealed in Christian Science. I was recently uplifted by the realization of the presence and activity of the spiritual idea, or Christ, and the realization stood out so plain and clear in consciousness that I never shall forget it. There was a sense of mental depression occasioned by the passing on of a loved one, and this seeming separation clouded my thought until the omnipresence of the loving Father was realized.

I have also been healed of a condition of impaired eyesight, so aggravated that I could not read the street car signs while standing on the sidewalk. Rheumatism was overcome in four treatments. Previously the attacks had lasted as many weeks under medical treatment before I had any relief. Ptomaine poisoning was healed instantaneously.

About two years ago a growth appeared on my face near the right temple. At first I thought it was a freckle and paid no attention to it. Then it commenced to enlarge and become inflamed, so that it was noticeable, and my friends constantly reminded me of it. I became very fearful, and the more fear I manifested the faster the growth developed. At this point I sought help from a practitioner, and in less than ten days not even a scar was visible. There have been other conditions in our home which have as readily yielded to the almighty force of Truth. These have taught me to remove the doubting "Why?" from my thinking and to realize the omnipotence of God as the first and only cause.
