For over thirty years Christian Science...

Helen M. Laing

For over thirty years Christian Science has been my only physician, and our children and I have experienced many healings. My first healing was of a condition which caused the tips of my fingers to split open and be very sore. I had been told by a doctor that I must keep my hands out of water and use a salve which he would give me. This was impossible for me to do as I had two small children and was doing my own housework. Then I wrote to a Christian Science practitioner for help. Within ten days my hands were completely healed.

There was no practitioner in our town, and I learned to work out many problems for myself. On page 229 of "Historical Sketches" by Clifford P. Smith is a quotation from a letter of Mrs. Eddy's in which she says: "Do not forget to be strong in the clear consciousness that you are able to heal and no counter mind can make you weak for a moment through fear or a lack of confidence in our power or rather understanding. Remember God, Truth, is the healer, the balm in Gilead. and our only Physician, and can never be insufficient for all things." I am grateful, too. for the loving help of practitioners.
