Christian Science was first presented to me by a relative who had been healed through Christian Science and who, while visiting me, asked me to read the daily Lesson-Sermon. I saw at once what a wonderful book Mrs. Eddy has given us in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," and it has never ceased to be a joy to me to study all of our Leader's writings and to read the periodicals founded by her. Having noticed how eagerly those seeking help turn to the testimonies in The Christian Science Journal and in the Sentinel, I see how mankind is reaching out for the healing truth as taught by Christ Jesus, the Way-shower.
I have thought it unnecessary for me to give a testimony of healing because the physical healings have been so simple, but I am most grateful for the healing of grief over the seeming loss of loved ones. Mrs. Eddy says on page 521 of Science and Health: "All that is made is the work of God, and all is good. We leave this brief, glorious history of spiritual creation (as stated in the first chapter of Genesis) in the hands of God, not of man, in the keeping of Spirit, not matter,—joyfully acknowledging now and forever God's supremacy, omnipotence, and omnipresence." Whatever our seeming problems may be we can go on joyfully expressing gratitude for Christian Science.
