Many times when going through...

John Gerald Moelling

Many times when going through deep waters I have been helped by testimonies published in the Christian Science publications. I know that by relating our experiences in which God's omnipotence has been proved through the application of Christian Science, we help others gain faith and understanding with which to renew their courage.

I grew up in a home where Christian Science was the only physician and religion. However, in college I allowed myself to drift away from its teachings and began taking material remedies. I discontinued attending church services and began to smoke and drink socially.

After my marriage, when I moved from the protection of my former home, things went from bad to worse. An alarming colonic condition turned me fearfully to a physician for help. The day came when I was to go to a hospital for exploratory X rays. However, this proved to be the day when the seed of Truth, which had been sown in my consciousness at the Christian Science Sunday School, began to grow. I decided to turn resolutely back to God and to His law, Christian Science, for my healing. I called the hospital, canceled my appointment, looked up the name of a Christian Science practitioner in the telephone book, and made an appointment to see her that day. Work was taken up immediately and continued for about six months. My physical condition began to improve almost at once. The smoking and drinking ceased; and false traits of character, such as apathy, left me.
