Severe headaches disappear after earnest study

[Original testimony in German]

Anna Westphal

With a grateful heart I wish to testify to the many healings which I have experienced through Christian Science. From childhood I searched for a religion which would make my life worth while. I attended many churches, but the Bible remained a closed book to me. Life was often a great burden, although I clung to the beautiful verse (Matt. 11:28), "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."

At a time of great affliction I lost m husband. Afterward I had an opportunity to visit my sister in the United States, where I soon learned of Christian Science. I shall never forget my first Lesson-Sermon in the Christian Science Quarterly. It was to me like the day of resurrection. I soon realized that I did not know God, that I had very little understanding of Him. I accepted this teaching with a joyful heart and was ready to make any sacrifice.

The textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, was given to me, and through my earnest study of it the severe headaches from which I had suffered since childhood and which had caused me many a wretched day, were soon healed.
