Testimony of Healing December 4, 1954 Issue

It is with deep gratitude for all...

Margaret C. Stevens

It is with deep gratitude for all that Christian Science has given me that I offer this testimony as a positive evidence of its healing efficacy. To be able to follow the example of Christ Jesus through the teachings of our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, is a priceless privilege.

A healing through mental surgery which came by my relying wholly upon God has been a steppingstone that has helped me in working out other problems. For many years there had been a morbid growth on the side of my head. It had been rather dormant, and I had denied its presence only spasmodically. Finally it began to enlarge, and it became so painful that it was difficult for me to wear a hat or to sleep on that side.

When I started to work specifically in Christian Science, I recalled that the year the growth appeared I had felt that a friend was very unfair in a business deal. In my desire to purify my thinking and obey God I used Mrs. Eddy's statement in Science and Health (p. 242): "Self-love is more opaque than a solid body. In patient obedience to a patient God, let us labor to dissolve with the universal solvent of Love the adamant of error,—self-will, self-justification, and self-love,—which wars against spirituality and is the law of sin and death."
