The following is a quotation I often think of, for I can apply it to my growth in Christian Science:—

We rise by the things that are under our feet;
By what we have mastered of good and gain.

When the truth is applied, as taught by Christian Science, with each error overcome and mastered, something of good is gained. I am thankful that with each physical healing I rise a step, and that the physical healing is merely a sign, or result of the real healing, which is spiritual. My first healing, which took place with the help of a practitioner, in about a week, included the overcoming of nervous trouble, neuralgia, constipation, and valvular heart trouble. The heart trouble, which the doctors said was the result of inflammatory rheumatism when a child, was a source of constant fear on the part of relatives and friends. All kinds of remedies had been tried, such as change of climate and medicine of all kinds, with only temporary relief.

During these four years since my first healing I have had many varied problems, and have found Christian Science an ever present help and cure in every one. Our baby girl, now over two years old, was born with very little pain to me and without any bad results. The doctors had said this would be impossible. The baby has had several healings, one of severe cold; also of bowel trouble and effects of teething. She has also been protected by the power of Truth from many contagious diseases to which she was exposed. There are so many healings to relate that I can give only a few of the most marked ones.

The dentist, after having an X ray of a tooth taken, said I would have to have the wisdom tooth removed as it was crowding the one next to it, resulting in much pain, and as this tooth was not in sight he said it would be rather a serious operation, but thanks to Christian Science the pain soon left and the operation was not necessary. This was over two years ago and I have had no trouble with it since. I would also like to state that all these healings have been permanent and I am a perfectly well woman to-day. To say I am thankful for all the good which this truth has brought to me would indeed be inadequate. I am trying to live my gratitude, knowing that this is what God demands of us.
