"Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction." This I can declare with the Psalmist from a grateful heart!

I was privileged to find Christian Science in a very wonderful way. I was mentally and physically broken down as the result of a difficult internal trouble. The doctor who was treating me considered an operation within three days indispensable. Otherwise, according to his opinion, life would be over for me. When in desperation I told a kind friend of this, he begged me to postpone the operation until he could introduce me to a woman who, he said, knew a wonderful remedy that would help everyone, and who would surely have some advice for me.

Shortly after that I met the woman, who was a Christian Scientists, and she explained to me what God is and what my relation is to Him. In that first hour in which I learned something of Christian Science I was freed of very great fear. At my request treatment was given me, and after several days the pain ceased, and gradually the external symptoms disappeared. When I had to visit the doctor again some time later, on account of health insurance, he attested to my healing and could not help wondering how it was possible for me to have been healed without an operation. This healing occurred eleven years ago. With all my heart I am grateful for it and especially for the spiritual inspiration which accompanied it.
