It is with great humility that I testify to the truth of this statement, for Christian Science has completely revolutionized my life.

Before I became a student of this Science, my ignorance of its real nature made me ridicule what I thought it to be.

He lived for several years thereafter, although doctors had given him up, saying there was nothing more they could do.

When I was willing to give up preconceived ideas, and in humility turned to God, I began at once to experience His healing presence. Overnight I was healed of constipation of long standing, which had been the cause of one operation, and because of which I had taken pills and oils every day for years. I no longer doubted that there was a great power or law operating which I had heretofore not recognized, and I desired to understand that law.
