I can never be grateful enough...

Gertrude Gober Wingate

I can never be grateful enough to the friend who presented Christian Science to me early in 1949, when I was in a state of nervous exhaustion and on the verge of complete collapse. I had reached the point where I did not think I could continue the struggle, for life simply did not seem worth living. My friend very kindly borrowed a copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy for me from a Reading Room and suggested that I consult a practitioner. After reading the chapter on Prayer, I knew that I had found the answer to my problems, which I realized were all the result of my having left God out of my life for many years.

I consulted a practitioner and left her office, after my first treatment, restored in health; all feeling of exhaustion and nervousness had left me. This healing has been permanent, for I can work long hours and never become tired or feel any lack of energy.

Later I experienced quick healings of influenza, chronic constipation, pneumonia, a severe cough of long standing, smoking, and social drinking. Character faults have been corrected, including those of self-pity and resentment. Many business problems have been solved through the application of the truth, and lost articles have been located. God has been good to me in so many ways that I do not have words to express properly the gratitude I feel. My earnest prayer is that at all times I shall be found doing His will.
