I should like to express my deep gratitude to God for the truth that Christian Science does heal sickness, inharmonious situations, lack, and inherited traits and troubles. Mrs. Eddy says (Science and Health, p. 174): "Truth is revealed. It needs only to be practised." The rule is established, and if harmony is not demonstrated the fault lies in the application of the rule, not in the Science of healing as revealed by Mrs. Eddy. I am very grateful that I have learned this, for it has enabled me many times to correct my wrong thinking and to begin again with the truth of being.

Although our family have not been students of Christian Science quite a full decade, it is with a sense of looking back at a dream that I sometimes remember my former environments and years of sicknesses. How mental it all was! If for no other reason, I should be eternally grateful to Mrs. Eddy for showing us how to prove the truth of Jesus' saying. "The kingdom of God is within you."

When I began the study of Christian Science I had had five nervous breakdowns in eight years, and was on the verge of another. I accepted Christian Science after the very first few minutes of reading the chapter on Prayer in our textbook. And I am grateful to God that my husband felt as I did. The children started to attend the Sunday school and they had many healings. When my husband began studying Christian Science, he was wearing a surgical belt and was under the impression that he could do no heavy work, having just quit one position entailing such work. In less than six weeks he had disposed of the belt.
