The truth of the statement that "man's extremity is...
The truth of the statement that "man's extremity is God's opportunity," has been proved in my experience.
Early in the summer of 1915 I was told by our family physician that my chances of ever being a well and healthy woman were slight. He advised my having an operation, but said that it would be a serious as well as a very expensive one and that there would be only one chance in a hundred that I should recover at all.
A few weeks after receiving this information, my husband and I were invited to a cottage at a lake resort where Christian Science services were being held. The subject of the Lesson-Sermon in the Christian Science Quarterly was "Man." The next day I called on a Christian Science practitioner, who took up work for me, and in a short time my physical condition began to improve. Although my healing was slow, it finally came, and I was most grateful. I have also been healed of a stubborn case of eczema on my face, a healing for which I can never sufficiently express my gratitude to the faithful practitioners, who were always ready to give me help whenever needed. I have also been healed of a severe attack of quinsy. While grateful for these and many other physical healings, I am most grateful to know more of Christ, Truth, as revealed through the teachings of Christian Science.
