It is with much gratitude that I give my testimony of the healing power of Christian Science. I turned to Christian Science when I was in need of physical healing and this was received in six weeks through the reading of the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. I had been ill, with stomach and bowel trouble, since childhood. All the material means and remedies that might restore health had been tried, and for many years I was almost constantly under the care and supervision of physicians, and would spend months at a time in a hospital. I did not get well; periodically I had very severe illnesses, and had to undergo many and varied operations. Since I have been a student of Christian Science I have had excellent health, and for this I am grateful. I am also thankful for the understanding of God that I have gained, and I know that the health and harmony I now enjoy have come through spiritual unfoldment, and the knowledge that man is made in the image and likeness of God.

I have been healed of an eye trouble that had necessitated the wearing of glasses since childhood. I can truthfully say that the "windows of heaven" have been opened to me; and to the degree that I have been obedient I have experienced the fulfillment of the promise given in the third chapter of Malachi, tenth verse: "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it."

I am grateful for The Christian Science Monitor, also for the other periodicals that Mrs. Eddy founded and established and gave to the world, to help and to bless all who wish to avail themselves of the opportunities which this literature offers. I am not only grateful for the spiritual help that I have gained from reading the Christian Science literature but for the education that these periodicals, and especially The Christian Science Monitor, have afforded me.
