For some time after my parents...

For some time after my parents started the study of Christian Science I was only mildly interested. Not realizing what Jesus meant when he said (Matt. 6:24), "Ye cannot serve God and mammon," I tried to be a sophisticated man of the world and receive healings, too.

Following an injury in which I received a fractured skull, I was told by doctors that I had epilepsy. This was a turning point in my life, because I suddenly realized that an earnest study of Christian Science was what I needed and what I wanted.

Almost from the start I began to realize what Mrs. Eddy means by the words in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (Pref., p. vii), "To those leaning on the sustaining infinite, to-day is big with blessings." For some months I called on a practitioner for help, and we talked about God, man, and the truths to be applied in Christian Science. As the truth unfolded, old fears and beliefs gradually disappeared. I learned to trust God with all my heart.
