The many inspiring testimonies...

Christine Tait

The many inspiring testimonies of healing appearing in our periodicals have afforded me much gratitude. I would like to add my testimony of two healings that were evidenced quickly through the healing power of the truth, as taught in Christian Science. These healings stand out to me when I am tempted to be discouraged at times, when my progress seems slow, or when a difficulty is not overcome as quickly as I would like it to be.

When our daughter was a little girl, a small tumor appeared on her tongue. At first I did not pay much attention to it since she did not appear to be greatly annoyed by it. However, after a while it became larger, and she was constantly drawing attention to it. One day I decided that we needed help for this condition; so I took, the child to visit a practitioner. After a pleasant visit, during which we were told a great deal about God and man's relationship to Him, we left for home. On our way home we talked about God's law of perfection for His children, and our daughter felt satisfied that all would be well.

As I kissed her good night that evening, I asked her to think about what the practitioner had told her of God and to thank Him for His goodness to all mankind. She said she would. Two or three mornings later, as I awakened our daughter for school she put her tongue out, pointed to where the tumor had been, and said, "Look, Mother; it is all gone." To me, this was a proof of the Bible statement (Hebr. 4:12), "The word of God is quick, and powerful." The tumor did not return.
