Since coming into Christian Science two years ago I have received many blessings. I suffered from nervous exhaustion in one of the worst forms for three years, also from trouble with the ears, which threatened deafness and caused constant earache for the same period of time; but I have been completely healed, after the doctors' saying I would never be well again.

About two years ago I, with my family, was camping about seven miles from the heart of a small city in New York state. The weather was quite cold and my brother was attacked by a cold and neuralgia. The pain continued to grow worse until about one in the morning, when he could no longer bear it. It was impossible to get medical help, in the country at that hour in the morning, so my brother asked me to treat him. I did so, but seemingly without results. Discouragement began to assail me and I said, "I cannot heal him; I have not enough understanding." Instantly the thought came: "Of course you can't heal him, but God can, and is both ready and willing to do so," and he was healed instantly; the pain ceased and in a few moments he slept and did not awaken once during the remainder of the night, and he has not had a return of the trouble since. I am profoundly grateful for Christian Science and for the assurance that "God is a very present help" always and in all ways.
