Christian Science has given me back my God, and for this I can never be sufficiently grateful. When I came into Christian Science I felt sure that there was a God, if I could only find Him, but that He was not the God described by the churches generally. Their concept of God seemed to me to make Him essentially unjust, and my idea of God was of a Being supremely just. This true God I have found through the teachings of Christian Science.

Although I did not come into Christian Science for healing, but because I realized it was what I had been desiring and looking for, I have had many healings. I have been healed of muscular rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago, and fractures, including a fractured skull. There are two healings for which I feel especially grateful. One was the healing of inflammation of the thyroid gland. This healing was gradual, but about four years ago the complete demonstration was made. I was never free from the fear that the condition would become acute; but now all fear has been destroyed, and I know that the condition can never return.

The other healing was of my eyes. For years the belief was held that if I used them blindness was inevitable. I started to use my eyes before I had sufficient understanding to overcome the fear, and one morning I awoke to find that I could see only three letters of a word at a time; but I did not have the thought that I could not read a section of the Lesson-Sermon in the Christian Science Quarterly, and I am sure it was this study which prevented the trouble from going farther. About an hour later I telephoned to a practitioner, and help was very lovingly given. The healing, though slow, was steady. I should like to take this opportunity to thank the practitioners who so lovingly and patiently helped me through it all.
