Mary Baker Eddy states in "Miscellaneous Writings"...

Florence E. Urquhart

Mary Baker Eddy states in "Miscellaneous Writings" (p. 151), "God is our Father and our Mother, our Minister and the great Physician: He is man's only real relative on earth and in heaven." I had the joyous privilege of attending the Christian Science Sunday School, learning at a very early age to turn to God in every way and to apply the above statement daily.

After marrying and having children, I began to be troubled with anemia, weakness, and a tendency to fainting spells. Although it was contrary to what I had learned in Christian Science, I began taking vitamins and eating certain supposedly health-giving foods, but I grew steadily worse. It came to me that perhaps I needed glasses. However, the optometrist could find nothing wrong with my eyes and advised that I see a physician.

As I left the optometrist's office, I turned again to the truths I had learned in the Christian Science Sunday School. I drew very close to God in the weeks that followed. I studied the Bible and Mrs. Eddy's writings, and with the aid of the Concordances, I looked up and pondered the spiritual significance of such words as "eyes," "light," "morning," "strength," and "health." Very soon I was completely healed. The children were enrolled in a Christian Science Sunday School, and I again became active as a member of a branch Church of Christ, Scientist.
