For the many blessings that have come to me and mine...

Eva Johnson

For the many blessings that have come to me and mine since taking up the study of Christian Science I am very grateful. My little son has never tasted medicine. One night last November he had quite a fever and in the morning we asked a practitioner for help. He had two treatments and got up perfectly well. In the evening I noticed a rash on his body and told the practitioner about it. She said the right thing to do was to report the case. I did not like the proposal but she pointed out to me what Mrs. Eddy says about reporting contagious diseases, and I wished to be obedient. The physician came the next morning and pronounced the case scarlet fever. After he left the boy was up and on roller skates, and was perfectly well during the entire quarantine period of one month.

Some time ago the boy fell from a high board fence, striking his nose. It looked as if the bones were broken, so we asked for treatment, and the nose is just as straight as ever. Another healing was of bowel trouble that seemed slow in yielding but by clinging to the truth as taught in the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy, and not listening to the suggestions of error, that trouble has been overcome. My mother was told by doctors she would have to be operated on for tumor, but that has dissolved into its native nothingness just by reading Science and Health. I am very grateful for the literature. I received a healing through reading an article in the Sentinel. I am thankful to God, and grateful to our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, and can only show my gratitude by living what we are taught in the Christian Science textbook.
