Joyful Testimony

KIMMIS HARTLEY HENDRICK

"TRUE, the heart grows rich in giving;
All its wealth is living grain;
Seeds which mildew in the garner,
Scattered, fill with gold the plain."

One of the joyous privileges which come to Christian Scientists is the opportunity to testify to the redemptive, healing power of God. Thus it was in Christ Jesus' day that they who were healed by the Master published the good tidings far and near, and those whose lives were transformed by Truth became living witnesses to the religion they professed. So, also, from the days of Mrs. Eddy's earliest healing work, the gospel of Christian Science has been convincingly preached by the great works done by our Leader and her students. It is, indeed, such testimony of healing which has helped to carry the message of Christian Science to the ends of the earth; for Mrs. Eddy says in our textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 201), "The best sermon ever preached is Truth practised and demonstrated by the destruction of sin, sickness, and death."
