Words cannot express my gratitude for Christian Science

A. L. Williams

Words cannot express my gratitude for Christian Science. It has been only little more than a year since we turned unreservedly to divine Love for our every need, and since then our blessings have indeed been many. After a winter in which our experiences included whooping cough and mumps, the destruction of our home by fire, and the birth and death of an infant daughter, I was run down mentally as well as physically. In this hopeless condition, and feeling very bitter toward a creator who, I thought, had taken our baby away, as some sort of punishment, I went, only as a last resort, to a Christian Science practitioner. I shall never forget her kind, loving words, as she explained that God is "of purer eyes than to behold evil," and knew nothing of the loss of the baby.

We then asked for help for our young son who had a cough which material remedies had failed to relieve, and in doing so threw out all of our medicine, which was no small amount. The cough was beautifully overcome in a very short time, and since then, through the loving help of a practitioner, fevers, colds, sore throat, rheumatism, and a severe case of ringworm have disappeared into their native nothingness. Our three children are attending a Christian Science Sunday school and are becoming able to meet some of their seeming claims through their own understanding. For all of these blessings I am truly grateful to God, to Jesus the Way-shower, and to Mrs. Eddy, who has rediscovered this wonderful truth.
