Christian Science came to me...

Nellie Q. Watters

Christian Science came to me very early in life. I shall always be grateful to my dear mother for giving me the privilege of attending the Christian Science Sunday School, where I was taught the truth, which protected me from many common ills.

As a very small child I was leaning over a wood fireplace when an explosion occurred. I ran out of doors, and all I remember saying was, "God is my Life." The fire on my clothing and hair went out like magic. I remember later that evening my mother talking on the telephone and telling the practitioner, "She is fine, and is sitting on the floor playing with the other children." It wasn't any time until my hair grew back, thick and curly, and there was not a blemish on my face; in fact, my complexion was better than ever. Surely, "The word of God is quick, and powerful," as the Bible tells us.

Christian Science has been my only help and protection since early childhood, and, though I have faltered at times, it has lifted me out of many trying experiences. I have learned that error cannot separate me from God, and also not to look back, but always to start again and follow through.
