Many years have passed since my first healing through...

Harriet H. Abbott

Many years have passed since my first healing through Christian Science. In sheer desperation, and after fighting against it for some time, I at last turned to it hoping to find relief from weak eyes, and as Mrs. Eddy says of the disciples of old, "Convinced of the fruitlessness of their toil in the dark and wakened by their Master's voice, they changed their methods, turned away from material things, and cast their net on the right side" (Science and Health, p. 35), so I turned from matter to Spirit. The understanding gained from the first interview with a practitioner enabled me to see in a small degree man's relation to God, his creator, which resulted in my laying aside glasses, which I had worn for five years but have not worn since. This was but the beginning of a firm stand for Truth. My gratitude to God for His loving care, and my appreciation for the unselfish devotion which made it possible for Mrs. Eddy to reveal to us this glorious truth can be expressed only in small measure, for it is almost impossible to put into words the gratitude and joy one feels for the benefits received through Christian Science.

(Mrs.) Harriet H. Abbott, New York, New York.
