Jesus said, "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." I am so grateful that in studying our textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy, in connection with the Bible, I have to some extent gained the understanding that Life is God.

In the year 1917, during the war, I was passing through a very anxious time. I had heard of Christian Science through a neighbor a few years before this, but had no desire to investigate it for myself. However, man's extremity is indeed God's opportunity; and just here I turned to Christian Science whole-heartedly, and found it indeed the Comforter. With my awakening to the truth that makes free, I was healed in a very short time of anxiety and fear for my husband, who was very ill in a hospital in the Near East. Looking back to that time now, I know that was the beginning of his healing.

I am so grateful to know God as Life, Truth, and Love. During the last five years we have had many proofs in our small family of the healing and regenerating power of divine Love. It is a privilege to attend the church services; and the Sunday school is a blessing for the children. For the many blessings I have had and the beautiful uplift I am experiencing, I am truly grateful.—(Mrs.) Gertrude Penistone, Sheffield, Yorkshire, England.
