Words are unable to express the depth of my gratitude...

Viola Gibson Truesdell

Words are unable to express the depth of my gratitude for the many blessings which have come to myself as well as other members of my family through Christian Science. An injury to my back was very quickly overcome through the loving help of a practitioner, and I was deeply grateful for the overcoming of Spanish influenza in one of its worst forms through the application of the truth. Our little boy, nine years old, has never had any medicine but has always responded quickly to treatment in Christian Science. We have also been able to realize the omnipresence of God's protecting care at times of accident. The ninety-first psalm and the passage from Isaiah, "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness," have never failed to destroy all sense of fear.

I am grateful for Christian Science, not alone for the physical help received, but for the help it gives in solving the little everyday problems. I am very grateful to Mrs. Eddy for giving this wonderful healing truth to the world, and for all our literature. My desire is so to live as to reflect more love to all mankind and be worthy the name Christian Scientist.

(Mrs.) Viola Gibson Truesdell, West Mentor, Ohio.
