Ever since childhood I had yearned for the truth, not being satisfied with what doctors and pastors told me, but maintaining that surely there must be a solution to and way out of suffering. My sister and I were brought up by servants who seemed cruel, and we did not have a single relative to whom we could turn for sympathy.

Many years later, when I could endure illness and mental agony no longer, I thought I would inquire into Christian Science, which I had only once heard mentioned. When it was explained to me, I instantly recognized it as the healing religion Jesus taught, and told us to preach and practice. I realized it was what I had been searching for all my life. I also saw that years of suffering had prepared my thought for what I might otherwise have rejected. God prepares the hearts of His servants.
