In writing this testimony I desire to express, to some extent, my gratitude for what Christian Science has brought into my life during the ten years that I have been a student of its teachings. After some grasp of its Principle I realized that it was the truth about God and about man's relation to Him, and that, therefore, His divine law, if faithfully applied, could be depended upon to prevent discord from expressing itself through me and mine. Reasoning along this line I have continually tried to place myself and my family in His loving care and protection, and feel that I have been amply repaid for that effort to know God, as my children have experienced little sickness of any severity and have been very free from even slight accidents. I know that this harmony is due to the fact that I have daily striven to avail myself of God's ever present care.

I came to Christian Science because of serious nervous trouble. I had always had a morbid disposition and was subject to frequent attacks of "the blues." My outlook on life, my disposition, and my health have so changed for the better that I know that I have acquired to some extent that Mind "which was also in Christ Jesus." I am so sure of God's presence and power that it would be impossible for me to be less than happy and hopeful.

After some progress in the study of Christian Science I realize that Truth requires absolute truthfulness and honesty; Life expresses itself in a spiritual understanding which is indestructible, and Love knows no man but the image and likeness of God. That Mrs. Eddy was God-directed has certainly been proved by a vast number of people, and I am thankful that I am one of the happy throng.
