I am very grateful for Christian Science

Della B. Schwartz

I am very grateful for Christian Science. From childhood I was always sick and never knew what it was not to take medicine. As I grew older, a nervous complaint developed, and I was compelled to remain home from high school one semester on account of poor health. A few years after I completed school, the nervousness developed into a despondent melancholy condition, and life did not seem worth living. I knew doctors could not cure me, and thought nothing could help me. My mother heard of Christian Science and persuaded me to try it.

It was such a comfort to find out that God is Love, and that all space is filled with divine Love. When I read, on page 57 of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy: "Happiness is spiritual, born of Truth and Love. It is unselfish; there-fore it cannot exist alone, but requires all mankind to share it," I pondered these statements for some time. Then I read on farther, but these statements kept ringing in my thought, and I turned back and reread them. I began to glimpse true happiness. My healing was very slow, but it gave me much time for study and purification of thought.

About six years ago I awoke early one morning and felt that I was passing on. My husband called for help in Christian Science, and I immediately began to get a sense of Life, and all that day the thought, "God is Life," was with me.
