Christian Science has been "a light unto my path" (Ps. 119:105) for nearly twenty years, and it has met my every need. It came to me at a time of great mental darkness and physical distress. From childhood I had longed to believe that the so-called miracles of Jesus and his disciples recorded in the Bible could be repeated today, but I was always told that they were a special dispensation for that day. The world as I had been taught to view it seemed very inconsistent to me. I turned away from the explanations given me and for a time believed I was an agnostic. Really I was turning away from a false concept of God and His universe, and my thought was being prepared to accept the truth about God and man, as given to the world by our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, through her revelation of divine Science. It was natural and inevitable that I should eventually turn to Christian Science.

Through the help of a practitioner and my consecrated study and application of this glorious truth, the false concepts of God and man were progressively replaced by the truth about God and man were progressively replaced by the truth about God and His spiritually mental universe of ideas. Then the physical problem was healed. The fear of permanent invalidism, prophesied by a prominent physician, was destroyed by the assurance of man's perfection in Science.
