Some years ago I wrote a short testimony which was printed in The Christian Science Journal. Since then some beautiful demonstrations of the truth which our Saviour said would make free have been made through the spiritual understanding I have gained. My husband was healed entirely through Christian Science treatment of a broken ankle. I was healed of sorrow and loneliness when he later passed on. I received great comfort from page 42 of "Miscellaneous Writings" by Mrs. Eddy. An intestinal condition and arthritis have been overcome, also a malignant growth on my neck.

For all these healings I am truly grateful, but I am far more grateful for having been guided to this Science, where I have found the truth about God and man made in His image and likeness. Many years before I found Christian Science I had refused to accept the idea of a God who was supposed to send sickness and death to His children. I could not worship a God who was less merciful than man. When I opened that wonderful book, Science and Health, I knew before I had finished reading one page that it was inspired, and I also knew I had found what I had been looking for all my life, a God of Love. Words are inadequate to express my deep gratitude for Science.

I feel that the daily study of the Lesson-Sermons and the uplifting articles in our periodicals bring us nearer each day to divine Love, "nearer, my God, to Thee," as the lovely old hymn expresses it. Our Leader writes on page 239 of Science and Health, "If divine Love is becoming nearer, dearer, and more real to us, matter is then submitting to Spirit."
