Life did not mean much to me before I found Christian Science,...
Life did not mean much to me before I found Christian Science, some fourteen years ago, but all this was changed when I began its study about one month after arriving in California, having left the eastern part of the United States to go to relatives who are Christian Scientists, and because it was thought a change of climate would be beneficial. This latter was soon proved not true, and I was induced to try Christian Science. A severe cough disappeared, to the astonishment of a lady in the house who was not a Christian Scientist. I was facing the necessity of putting on glasses, but through the understanding that sight is spiritual this was overcome.
Christian Science enabled me, an exceedingly timid, untrained woman, to enter the business world at an age when most people would not attempt it. My family had thought that I would always be dependent on some of them. I have supported myself for a number of years, and now that I am no longer in the business world my needs are met through pleasanter work. While I am grateful for all these blessings and to all who have helped me over the seemingly rough places I am most grateful for the spiritual awakening. I am grateful for the pure, unselfish life of the noble woman who could give this truth to us, her children in understanding, and that she established The Mother Church, its branches and all their activities, with the understanding that God is omnipotence, omnipresence, omniscience, and left us free to work out problems under divine guidance.
