I have been an active member...
I have been an active member of The Mother Church and of a branch church for several years. The giving of testimonies has come from a heart full of gratitude for the multitude of blessings that have helped me prove that "the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword." These words from Hymn No. 250 in the Christian Science Hymnal have helped many times:
Our gratitude is riches,
Complaint is poverty,
Our trials bloom in blessings,
They test our constancy.
In the Bible we read from Isaiah, "Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee." These words came from the "still small voice" when to human sense all was turmoil around me. The passing on of a loved one had left me with two children who had not completed their education, and I had no home or means of providing for them or myself. By trusting in God as Truth and Love, I maintained peace all through the experience.
