When Christian Science was...

Elizabeth Jones

When Christian Science was first introduced to me about thirty years ago, I was a trained nurse and therefore skeptical of its healing efficacy, since to my way of thinking healing of disease could come through no other means than surgery or medicine. Still I was filled with curiosity and began the study of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy.

Little by little I began to prove the truth by putting it into practice as I understood it. Early in the study I memorized "the scientific statement of being" from page 468 of the textbook. This has been a tremendous help and refuge in times of need.

At one time when I opened a window, the cord broke and my hands became wedged in between the sashes. During the imprisonment I quietly realized the truth of "the scientific statement of being." It was same time before I was released. I did not feel any pain; neither was there any mark on my hands.
