It is with deep gratitude for the divine influence of Christian Science in my life that I write this testimony.

I was in great need of physical healing, having suffered for twelve years from intestinal ulcers. I dieted strictly, and used two and sometimes three kinds of medicine, but the condition gradually became worse. I was in despair, because my body was not functioning normally, and doctors, specialists, and hospital treatment gave me no relief. At last, after an examination, I was told that the condition was chronic and nothing more could be done for me.

During one week two people, strangers to each other, asked me if I had ever thought of trying Christian Science. I thought at the time that this was a coincidence, but now I know that it was the "still small voice" of Truth guiding me, for I went to church and made an appointment with a practitioner. I thank God daily for that visit, because I came away with a sense of peace, joy, and illumination of thought which would be difficult to describe.
