I had heard of many wonderful healings through Christian Science treatment, but for a time I held the erroneous belief that this religion might help some people, but that it would not work for me. I continued as an onlooker until Christian Science was brought to my notice by my future husband, a Christian Scientist. With his help I learned of the one Mind, divine Principle, the Father-Mother God, who is infinite Love to all His children. I attended the church services, and earnestly read all of Mrs. Eddy's books. I felt reclaimed, and determined to know the one and only God in the right way.

I became interested in Christian Science primarily for spiritual enlightenment. The logic of this new-old religion strongly appealed to me. Later, a testing time came. At the time of a serious attack of acute indigestion I turned to Christian Science whole-heartedly. My first call for help brought me an instantaneous healing. I then felt the power of the Christ, Truth, the same to-day as when practiced by Jesus centuries ago. I am happy over this healing, as I had suffered from this ailment for six years, being attacked acutely at intervals, and once almost fatally while on a trip away from home, when materia medica had been unable to help me.

I am so thankful I was led to Christian Science before the birth of our first child, for through its ministration the truth about God and man and their relationship was made manifest in a very harmonious birth. I felt so grateful for God's love. Later, at the birth of a second son, I shall never forget the exalted state of thought I was able to abide in. I was wonderfully protected, and the birth was practically painless. Since that time there have been many healings in our home. Ailments of childhood, such as whooping cough, measles, and ear trouble, have all been readily met. We can never cease to be grateful for the ever present Love guiding our every action. A few years ago my husband was attacked by paralysis, but this was beautifully met in a short time, and he was completely healed.
