When Jesus made his triumphal entry into Jerusalem, the people cried out with joy for all the mighty works which he had done; and so in our day, those who have witnessed the power and presence of God are happy to let their joy be known. I am grateful that Christian Science has given me an understanding of God as an ever present help in trouble. Not long ago I became ill with influenza and chicken pox. A Christian Science practitioner was asked to help me, and I recovered in a little over a week. Through reliance on the understanding that my strength came from God, who was withholding nothing good or needful from me, I received strength to walk a little each day, in order to direct household activities. Though the evidences of chicken pox ex tended over my hands and feet, I was able to resume my duties about the home with but slight discomfort, and all signs disappeared quickly without leaving a scar. A numbness in my fingers and toes persisted, but that also disappeared after several further treatments.

I was healed of childbirth fever in one treatment, so that all pain and fever left me within ten minutes after a practitioner was called. The physician and nurse who were attending me showed surprise at the almost instantaneous change in my condition.

One night I awoke with a terrible pain in my stomach. After the pain continued for over an hour, at my request my husband telephoned a practitioner for help. Treatment was given, and within twenty minutes all pain had left me. Throat trouble which developed after an attack of quinsy left me unable to speak for a month, and for two months I was able to form words only with difficulty. One morning I asked a practitioner for treatment for this condition, and in the evening my throat and voice were normal, and did not trouble me again.
