With a deep sense of love and gratitude to our revered Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, for her great gift of Christian Science to the world, I am impelled to give this testimony. A number of years ago, I was healed of prolapse of internal organs, a condition which caused me much distress and anxiety. We had three young children, and I could not care for them nor perform the necessary daily duties of a household.

In our home was the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. Finally I took it up and opened it to the first chapter, entitled "Prayer." There I read on page 1, "Desire is prayer." My desire was to understand something about Christian Science, and I became so entirely engrossed in Mrs. Eddy's explanation of true prayer that a false concept of God which I had entertained, but was not aware of, was corrected. This new glimpse of a wholly good God, a God who is Love, ever present and available at all times and under all circumstances, was truly the answer to my prayer.
