Having received so much help from the testimonies which appear in the Journal and Sentinel, I am sending mine with the hope that it may help some one who is seeking the light as I was. Less than five years ago, when Christian Science was presented to me, I had been under the care of a specialist for six years. I seldom felt well, and very severe headaches were frequent; in fact, I was almost always wanted and ailing and had been so all my life. I had always wanted to know more of God but had been taught that, although God is a God of love, He sent sorrow to us in order to draw us nearer to Him. As a consequence I felt that a mere earthly parent could and usually did express more of love and justice than God. I was often afraid to say, "Thy will be done." because of the belief that if I did God might demand further sacrifices of me.

Then came Christian Science. I shall never forget my first visit to a practitioner, because I was told that God knows nothing of evil and never sends pain, sickness, or death to His children; it was a revelation to me. To-day I am perfectly healthy, happier than I ever believed it possible to be, and so thankful for the better knowledge of God and of man's sonship as revealed in Christian Science. Love is solving all my problems, great and small, and I find daily that nothing is too good to be true. I am more grateful than I can express, to God, to Christ Jesus the Way-shower, and to Mrs. Eddy for this glorious truth which is available to all.
