I am grateful for the privilege...

I am grateful for the privilege of expressing my gratitude in writing, and also for the invitation to express gratitude which is extended to all who attend Christian Science Wednesday evening testimony meetings.

Christian Science has brought many blessings to the members of my small family. There have been healings of chronic constipation, headaches which had caused suffering for many years, influenza, lumbago, yellow jaundice, ptomaine poisoning, blood poisoning, and many minor ailments too numerous to mention. Severe burns were healed without any suffering whatever and without a scar. Childhood diseases have been healed without passing through the usual crises or running the time allotted by materia medica. I myself have experienced a great improvement in disposition, which was much needed. We have been helped with financial problems and have felt protection in time of danger, especially while passing through three storms, two of which were called hurricanes and one a tornado. Some healings have been brought about with the help of practitioners, while others have been accomplished through the application of the teachings of Christian Science according to our understanding of them.

At a time when it seemed necessary to have four teeth removed, I made an appointment with a dentist. He had remarked that the teeth were in a bad condition, and he did not think human endurance capable of having them all removed at once. He was of course expecting to use a drug. I felt that I should have the teeth removed without a drug, but was tempted to think of how much easier it would he with one. Then I asked myself the question, "Do you think a drug has more power to help you than God has?" No. I could not believe that, because I knew it was not true.
