In loving gratitude I submit this testimony, hoping that it may be of as much benefit to others as those of others have been to me. During the six years of our study of the Christian Science literature, we have experienced untold blessings spiritually, financially, and physically. One of my first healings was that of bowel trouble of fifteen years' standing, for which I had treatment from several physicians, but without avail. This healing took place before I had finished reading the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, and when I only partially understood it, at that. Colds, croup, chilblains, and fevers have been overcome within a few hours. I experienced an instantaneous healing from fever, which healing came about in the following manner: I was away from home, and having spent what was to me a miserable day, awaited the coming of my husband. When he arrived that evening I complained to him, and I recall his saying that I was very foolish to give up to error in this manner. I pondered his words, and it dawned on me that I was holding fast to error, and I realized my mistaken attitude. Then straightway the fever left.

I could write pages telling of the many, many blessings that have come to us daily through reading and studying the Christian Science literature. We own an immense debt of gratitude to Mrs. Eddy for so patiently and lovingly exploring the way for us, and I thank God that we are living in this age in which has been given to us the wonderful opportunity to live and practice the Golden Rule. I also desire to thank those kind and loving practitioners who have always been so willing day or night to lend a helping hand during our journey Spiritward.
