I send this testimony as a token of thankfulness to God for all His goodness and of gratitude to Mrs. Eddy for showing us how to avail ourselves of that unfailing source of good. During this year, and indeed ever since my husband and I heard of Christian Science, over four years ago, the evidences of God's care in our daily life have been too numerous to relate.

We were seeking for a house a little while ago, when to mortal sense the means to pay for one seemed very limited. As a result of working as we are taught in Science and of help received from a practitioner, we found what we were seeking, costing just what we could afford to give, which seemed a ridiculously low rent. Many other times we have been helped to realize that God is the source of our supply. Colds and many other discords have often been overcome or prevented in what is to mortal sense a most wonderful way. Before coming into Christian Science, I took medicine almost every day for a bowel trouble, but I am thankful to say the need for that has entirely disappeared.

I am particularly grateful for the way in which so many so-called laws were overcome when our little son was born, and for the freedom from physical discomfort during the months before he came. What I am most grateful for, however, is the spiritual uplift received during this time, for which I can never be sufficiently thankful, nor for the help given me by the practitioner and other Christian Science friends.
