Like David of old, my desire is to have a clean heart

Like David of old, my desire is to have a clean heart. It was this desire which led me to accept Christian Science. Since that time, about six years ago, I have had many testings to see if I truly know that God is All. One such testing occurred this winter, when I was attacked by so-called influenza. At first, I did not understand the exact nature of the malady; but when a Christian Science practitioner was called she unveiled the error, and I gained immediate relief from what had seemingly been great agony of body. All of the usual symptoms were present, so that there was no reason to doubt I had a severe case of intestinal influenza. I had no aid but Christian Science; and I rapidly recovered, with no bad after effects, such as many seem afflicted with when using material remedies.

God says to call upon Him in the day of trouble; and He promises to deliver us. So, now I give to Him the glory for my deliverance. I am very thankful for all that I know about Christian Science, and for all the good the practitioners and publications have given us. My desire is to study to show myself "approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."—(Mrs.) Mary E. Kelley, Atchison, Kans.
