Testimony of Healing November 28, 1936 Issue

My heart is filled with gratitude for the truth which heals...

Garnett Joiner

My heart is filled with gratitude for the truth which heals and saves; and because of the uplifting and joy which I receive from reading the testimonies of others in our publications I think it is time for me to give expression to that appreciation. When there seems to be a mist and I find I am not thinking rightly, if I turn to the testimonies and read them, in a few moments I find peace and a new inspiration to study for a higher understanding of Truth, Life, and Love.

The first healing I experienced was of car sickness, when all I knew of Christian Science was the name. This healing was accomplished through a single absent treatment by a relative. It was not until many years later that I again heard of this Science, and even then I gave it little serious attention, but read, as I then thought broad-mindedly, psychology, naturopathy, physical culture, new thought, theosophy, and any other line relating to mind and body control. When Christian Science was presented to me by a friend I resisted its teachings for some time, even while attending church services and lectures.

Then came a time when I saw healings which convinced me that the application of this truth is effective. I saw one healed of a compound fracture of the leg, and later a healing of what the medical profession had declared to be the last stages of cancer. I saw every need supplied by divine Love when all material supply for a family seemed exhausted. Then a member of my own family, who was not interested in Christian Science, was saved after the doctors had declared recovery impossible and death imminent.
