My first healing in Christian Science...

Verna Weems McVay

My first healing in Christian Science came when I knew very little about its teachings. I was suffering from a severe case of tonsillitis and had purchased a copy of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy. In looking through it I found Mrs. Eddy's interpretation of the twenty-third Psalm on page 578. I thought it the most beautiful interpretation of a Scriptural selection I had ever read; so I memorized it.

The next morning I had the most wonderful, uplifted feeling I had ever experienced. I felt as though I were walking on the clouds. My throat was without pain, and I discovered I had been healed. For this first wonderful healing, I shall always be grateful.

Another healing which occurred early in my study of Christian Science was that of periodical sick headaches, which usually kept me in bed without food for two or three days. At another time, after a message had been sent to a practitioner in another city, I was healed in one treatment of an abscessed ear. I should like to mention, too, the healing of a very painful bladder condition, which was caused by an injury and for which medical science could give no relief. I have been protected in accidents from serious injury three times.
