Sarah Eleanor Paine

About twenty years ago, a testimony was published covering my first experiences with Christian Science. Now I should like to add an expression of gratitude for the healing and protection received in the years since then.

During more than twenty-six years I have been so beautifully cared for through Christian Science that I have never been obliged to spend an entire day in bed. I have had a number of practically instantaneous healings of severe pain. Among other quick healings have been those of food poisoning, influenza, burns, and sprains. A sprained ankle, which caused considerable pain and difficulty, was remarkably improved in a few hours after a practitioner was called; and the next day no trace of the trouble was left. At another time what seemed to be an attack of sciatica was so quickly healed through the work of a practitioner that, though I could hardly walk across the room in the morning, in the afternoon I walked over a mile and climbed several flights of stairs easily. The difficulty has never returned.

When I was knocked down by an automobile, the sense of shock was overcome, and I went on to my destination alone. Later there appeared to be an evidence of strain in the right arm. For this I had occasional help from a practitioner, especially at a time when I was playing a difficult piano program, which was done with no inconvenience whatever. The last vestige of soreness in the arm disappeared in a few months.
