Myrtle Marvis

My first instantaneous healing in Christian Science came just after I had finished a business course and was rejoicing in my first office position. My wrist and hand became so swollen that I could not use my fingers. A physician pronounced the trouble writer's cramp. He put a splint and bandage on my wrist and told me not to use my fingers for three weeks. I went home very much discouraged, because I needed the position.

It was Wednesday, and I went to a Wednesday testimony meeting in a Church of Christ, Scientist. As I left the church I took a Sentinel from a distribution rack and went home and read it. In an article was a quotation from II Corinthians (6:2) which arrested my attention: "Now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation." I arose from my chair with the intention of throwing the splint and bandage into the fire, but I hesitated and thought that I would leave them on until the next morning. The words came, "Now is the time," and then into the fire the splint and bandage went. The next morning I went to work perfectly free. Since that time, many years ago, Christian Science has healed me of lumbago, neuritis, a dislocated hip, and other difficulties.
