[Original testimony in Spanish]

I became acquainted with Christian Science...

I became acquainted with Christian Science about twelve years ago, but I drifted away from it, for at that time, as in the parable of the sower, the seed had fallen among thorns, which choked it. Three years later, however, when evil seemed to pursue me and great mental suffering engulfed me in the darkness of despair, I again felt a desire to turn to Christian Science and to study it. I followed this leading as one who seeks help from something outside human aid. After a while I was able to confirm these words of Jesus (Matt. 5:6): "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." I sought the truth diligently, trying to understand God and to draw nearer to Him, and God in His infinite mercy satisfied my thirst.

A short time after I had begun to study the teachings of Christian Science, I had an outstanding demonstration of the power of divine Love, which served to ground me in the fundamentals of this Science. My mother suffered a stroke, with congestion of the lungs. Inasmuch as the other members of my family had not accepted Christian Science, they immediately called a physician, who diagnosed the case as very serious. I promptly got in touch with a practitioner, who worked lovingly and patiently and showed me how to think.
