Carrie T. Sleeper

I wish to express my gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me. I came to Christian Science many years ago for the healing of a closed tear duct, when threatened with total blindness of one eye, the ball of the eye being seriously affected. I was under the treatment of a specialist for a year or so and had had many operations. At one time I felt that the condition had been improved, though not entirely cured; and the specialist told me he had done all that could be done, so I tried to be content to go through life taking special care of my eyes and being a slave to glasses.

I finally suffered a relapse; the trouble seemed more aggravated than before and in desperation I came to Christian Science, the result being a complete cure. The healing was slow but I think it was accomplished long before I would acknowledge it. Fear seemed to hold me; but when I did awaken to the fact that I did not have to bow down to that mortal mind law, and that God's law is the only law and ever operative, I was absolutely free and have been ever since. This experience is only one of many, and while I am grateful for the physical healing I am still more grateful for the spiritual awakening; for the unfoldment of the truth which is being manifested to me every day.

I wish also to express my deep appreciation of the message of good which the Christian Science literature is bringing to me regularly. My desire is that I may become a better transparency for the truth as revealed to us by our dear Leader, Mrs. Eddy.
