One day I picked up a Christian Science Sentinel and read an article. The last sentence contained the statement, "All discord melts in the sunshine of God's presence." Immediately a severe sore throat, which I had tried for several days to overcome, was completely healed. I have not always experienced instantaneous healings, but whenever I have sincerely worked to solve my problems, by knowing that man is God's reflection, the demonstration has always been made.

I am very grateful to the friend who first mentioned Christian Science to me, and to the practitioners who have lovingly helped me. My first healing came very gradually, while I was reading our textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, and having many talks with a practitioner who lived near. I was recovering very slowly from an operation. The physician said that it would be years before I could expect to be well, and advised me to try Christian Science, saying that I might obtain some help from it, and, anyway, it could do no harm. After a few weeks of almost constant reading of the Bible and Science and Health, I went to the medicine cabinet, and, filling my apron with pills and bottles of liquids, I threw them all into the ash can. From that time there was steady improvement, and in less than six months I was able to do all the required work for my family, and was feeling stronger than I had ever felt before.
