Testimony of Healing September 24, 1938 Issue

Adolf Renold

With great gratitude I testify to the following healings which I have been privileged to experience through Christian Science.

In the fall of 1934 I came home late one evening, and since it was very warm I went into the kitchen in the dark to drink a glass of lemonade. To my great horror I swallowed a live wasp, which stung me in the throat as I drank. In spite of the fact that I immediately tried to work in Christian Science, my whole pharynx swelled up very quickly and severely. Immediately I telephoned a practitioner for help and she lovingly gave it to me at once, in spite of the unusual hour. Thanks to this help I was able to go to sleep in a short time, and the next morning to go to my day's work harmonious and entirely well. This experience made a great impression on me, and I am deeply grateful to God, and also to the practitioner for the healing.

I have received many other blessings. For instance, when I was still going to school, I broke my arm close to the elbow during gymnastics, and the head of the school had me taken to the hospital. The case proved to be a very difficult one surgically. When I was released from the hospital at the end of six weeks, the fracture was healed, it is true, but my elbow joint had become stiff. In spite of all the doctors had done, they had not succeeded in healing the stiffness. In our great distress my mother and I turned to a practitioner and asked for help. From the moment that we renounced all medical aid and relied wholly on Christian Science, with the help of the practitioner, my condition rapidly improved, and in a short time the arm was again entirely normal. I am deeply grateful, too, for this glorious proof of the healing power of divine Love.
