Hildegard Eleanor Arnold

I am very grateful that I heard of Christian Science when I was still in my teens and was able to have the wonderful experience of over a year in the Sunday School. I feel this gave me a good foundation on which to build my understanding of God and His laws.

The day I first heard of Christian Science I was healed instantly of a high fever caused by being in the hot sun. As a child I had often suffered from this trouble, but it has never returned since that day. My next healing was of influenza, which was healed almost instantaneously with the help of a practitioner. In over twenty-five years I have never had another attack.

Recently I had a very helpful experience which showed to me and others the need of protecting our thought from superstition. While on holiday in the country I received a chain letter, detailing misfortunes which it claimed had resulted from failure to send on copies of it to other people. Although I saw the stupidity of the letter and denied it any power, I awoke two nights later full of fear, which I instantly realized was due to the evil suggestion in the letter. I endeavored to replace this fear with the understanding of Love's allness and nearness and then fell asleep again.
