The
apostle's counsel to the Philippians, "Work out your own salvation," indicates that positive and sustained activity is an essential of true Christianity.
When
the beginner in Christian Science experiences his first healing by its method and commences to realize some of the many benefits to be derived from using the understanding he has gained, he may, quite naturally, desire to engage immediately in the professional practice of Christian Science, so as to bring to the recognition of others this joyous healing power of Christ, Truth.
It
is thought by some Christian Scientists that it is necessary for one to know all about the so-called material laws believed to govern certain claims of disease, in order that these may be destroyed.
At
morn I pray,Whate'er to-day may ask of me,My love of Truth so pure may beThat it may ever point the wayTo prove His love divine, His tender care,For all His children everywhere.

It is only necessary for me to paint a picture of two stages in my life which by their contrast will show clearly the cause of my immeasurable gratitude for Christian Science.
I began the study of Christian Science in 1919, seeking a religion of peace—anything that could heal my fear of death, for my former church affiliations had failed to do this.
I began the study of Christian Science several years ago when a serious eye trouble and other physical disorders threatened to prevent me from continuing my work as a teacher.
I have so much for which to be grateful, covering every phase in my human experience, that it would take many testimonies to tell of all the blessings and healings I have received.
More than twenty years ago I turned to Christian Science, not for physical healing for myself, but for mental relief from a mother's anxious fears, and with the hope that I might find in Science some measure of security from the ills that seemed constantly to menace the well-being of our little family.
