I have felt for some time that I should make public acknowledgment of the many blessings that Christian Science has brought into my life.

I did not come into this wonderful Science for physical healing, although according to sense testimony I badly needed it, for two eminent physicians had told me that I had tuberculosis of the bronchial tubes and that it was only a question of time when it would reach the lungs and prove fatal. About this time a neighbor lent me a copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. I began reading it more out of curiosity than from any thought of its healing properties. During this reading I realized that it contained the great truth which I had been hungering for. All symptoms of the dread disease vanished, and there has not been the slightest return of the trouble. This entry of Truth into my life occurred over forty years ago.

Down through the years there have been many problems to meet, and Christian Science has been the sustaining power through them all. Soon after becoming acquainted with this wonderful religion, we moved to a new locality in a different state where I had no Christian Science neighbors on whom to lean. I thought that a great hardship at the time, but I later realized that it was what I needed to make me lean on God. Science was a great help in healing grief at the passing on of a loved one, for I was able to see, as I never had before, the unreality of death.
