With a grateful heart I testify to some healings I have been privileged to experience as a student of Christian Science. A few years ago very painful swellings appeared on my left leg, and in spite of my declaration of the truth, they prevented me from sleeping the next night. Through the treatment of a practitioner upon whom I called for help, the pain vanished and I was able to sleep again. Unfortunately, however, the error asserted itself again the next day in a greater degree and with more severe pain. The material evidence seemed to be severe blood poisoning, for the leg had turned black; and I was entertaining thoughts of great fear, thereby obstructing the path for the truth.

Through the practitioner's loving explanation that there is no fear in Love and that man ever reflects perfect Principle, our Father-Mother God, and through her further mental work, I was so uplifted that I was able to lay aside the thoughts of fear. Then there was rapid progress, and after three days all symptoms had disappeared. I was free and happy and unable to understand my having had thoughts of death a few days before. On the evening of the third day I was able to attend the Wednesday evening testimony meeting and to thank divine Love for this beautiful healing.
