Realizing the privilege that is...

O'dellmae Johnson

Realizing the privilege that is mine, as well as my duty as a Christian Scientist, to testify to the ever-availability of the Love that heals, I submit this testimony.

I had been brought up in an orthodox church, attending Sunday School as a child and later joining the church. Its teachings meant very little to me; the social activities were a greater attraction.

Several years after I was married, my husband became very ill with arthritis and an ulcerated stomach. For months we sought out physicians, but he grew steadily worse. When all material means had failed us, a dear friend told us of a Christian Science practitioner who lived nearby and to whom we then went. Great joy came to us with that first visit. Our introduction to Christian Science was beautiful. It turned our thoughts away from a sick and pain-racked man, and we beheld in Science the perfect and beloved idea of God. Through the sincere and earnest study of the Bible and of the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, my husband was completely healed.
