I have been studying Christian Science for only a short time, but I am sure that I should let others know the wonderful help that has come to me and mine.

Practically all my life I had been sick, but when I became a young woman I went to work and made my way until I married and had a home and later two children to care for. I suffered dreadfully from my back, and first one thing and then another ailed me. I suffered dreadfully from my back and first one thing and then another ailed me. I dragged along until February 10, 1943. On that day when cleaning my kitchen, I came across a copy of The Christian Science Journal lying on a trunk. I opened it, and my eyes fell on an article called "Health Is Normal." I thought, This sounds reasonable and right. I went into the living room and sat down to read it. I read it again and again; then I said, "I have a book here that must go with this magazine." I went to the bookcase and took down Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy. I opened it eagerly, hoping to find something good, something that would enlighten me and help me get well. I turned to page 400 and read, "Mortals obtain the harmony of health, only as they forsake discord, acknowledge the supremacy of divine Mind, and abandon their material beliefs." After I read this I became so absorbed in reading I could not read fast enough. I said to myself, "This is true; I believe every word of it!" I said, "Thank You, Father, God, for this inspiring reading."
