I feel prompted to write of the many blessings that have come to me since I began the study of Christian Science, which found me with health gone and faith in good shaken. To know God aright is truly health and peace, and Christian Science does give this knowledge. When it was first sented to me, it seemed such a sane, reasonable presentation of the truth about God that I began at once to try to prove its teaching.

Not having been considered very strong from childhood, I spent much time with books, the Bible claiming some of my attention, as I had always been interested in the wonderful works of Jesus. Some of my first proofs of the efficacy of Christian Science were painless dentistry and an instantaneous healing of a displacement, for which I had had an operation but without any benefit. Then constipation, nervousness, and some difficulty with my lungs disappeared; also many faults of character. I had a practical proof that God is the source of supply. All the depressing symptoms of the grip vanished with an hour's study of the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy.

While residing in one of the extreme southern states I seemed to become possessed with the fear that I would lose my mind. Through the loving work of a practitioner I was freed from this fear and learned as never before that the only Mind there is is that Mind "which was also in Christ Jesus." Christian Science also proved to be a blessing when my baby came; it banished all fear and there was almost a painless birth. Our little son has never had a day of sickness. I have laid aside glasses, after wearing them since childhood, and now have normal eyesight. The everyday problems enable me to prove the truth. I am so grateful to Mrs. Eddy for this Science which is truly Christian and to the loving practitioners who have helped me along the way. My desire is to imbibe more and more of the spirit of Christian Science while studying the letter, and to go forward lending a helping hand to others as others did to me.
