My experiences in Christian Science have given me so...

Maria Lorch

My experiences in Christian Science have given me so many proofs of the infinite grace and goodness of God, that I cannot but make it known through the pages of our Herold, so that the recognition of God's love may be brought to others. Several months ago I complained to a friend about a business loss which was threatening me, whereupon she reminded me of the omnipotent and omnipresent love of God as the only means of help for me. At the same time she introduced me to a Christian Science practitioner, who very lovingly and carefully explained the Word of God to me in such a way as I had never heard it rendered before. I was helped with great love and patience, and soon was privileged to know that our dear Father-Mother God is the only helper. Envy, hate, and fear were soon obliterated from my thought, and the results thereof, the physical difficulties, disappeared. For ten years I had suffered from a nervous abdominal trouble and chronic throat trouble. Neuritis of the head had resulted in eye trouble and had made it necessary for me to wear glasses. Now that I have experienced God's truth and love I have been completely freed from these ailments, and I know that the healing power of God, which comes to all sincere seekers through the knowledge of Christian Science, is adequate to heal all the sicknesses of mankind, and to meet its every need. I am filled with thanks to God for His love, and think of the Discoverer and Leader of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, with love and reverence. I am also grateful to all who have so lovingly helped me to know the truth. All my spare time is devoted to the study of our textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, and the Lesson-Sermons, and it is my endeavor to understand more of the truth and to be not only a hearer, but a doer of the Word of God.
