With humble gratitude I wish to testify to the many blessings my family and I have experienced through Christian Science.

Several years ago I experienced a wonderful healing. A member of the family who was not a Christian Scientist called a doctor, who diagnosed the condition as an abdominal growth. He wanted to take me to the hospital for an immediate operation and said that if I did not have an operation at once, I would die in a short time.

But I refused all medical help, for I wanted my healing to come through God alone. I clung steadfastly to the thought of God and His idea and to the words on page 167 of our textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, "Only through radical reliance on Truth can scientific healing power be realized." I held to the truth and earnestly examined my thinking. Resentment and other unloving thoughts were laid aside, and I learned to watch my thinking by recognizing only God, good, as true.
