Since my first testimony was...

Mary Allen

Since my first testimony was published in the Sentinel of March 13, 1948, many blessings have unfolded for me, including membership in The Mother Church and a branch church, the wonderful privilege of class instruction, and our annual association meetings. All of these experiences have brought much growth, joy, and happiness into my life.

I would like to relate an incident which proved to me that "man's extremity is God's opportunity." We were having some remodeling done in a bedroom, and I was going to finish painting a built-in cabinet in a closet. One afternoon after the men had left I prepared my paints and sat down on the floor in the closet to paint near the baseboard.

When I started to get up I was suddenly seized with a severe pain and found I could not move. For a while, fear paralyzed my thinking, and I felt that I was going to pass on. No one was around, and I did not expect anyone for a few hours. I tried to get up again to reach the telephone in another room, but was unable to do so.
