I had been reading the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures"...

I had been reading the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, about three weeks. After a Wednesday evening testimony meeting a friend noticed the absence of my glasses. (I had used glasses for many years and had been told by specialists in Massachusetts and Ohio that I would always need them.) I remarked to this friend, "I can't keep them in repair." This friend said, "That means you don't need them any more." I then realized how little I had actually used them, and many thoughts flashed through my mind, the two most important being: This is what is considered a miracle in the Bible, and how could this happen to me? And, I do not understand this truth, but I love it.

On arriving home I opened the textbook at random and read on page 135, "The miracle introduces no disorder, but unfolds the primal order, establishing the Science of God's unchangeable law." Then I thought, How wonderful; that is an answer to my query! I closed the book and opened it again. My eyes rested on these lines, on page 140: "The Christian Science God is universal, eternal, divine Love, which changeth not and causeth no evil, disease, nor death." I have never resorted to glasses again. This occurred over ten years ago. The healing was wonderful. The significance of these two statements was emblazoned on my thought, and my trust in God was established.
