I wish to add my expression of gratitude for the teachings of Christian Science with a sincere hope that this testimony will be of help to others. I have had so many proofs of God's love and care that space would not permit me to tell of all of them, but I should like to relate a few.

I have been healed of sick headaches, dizziness, and a tendency to fall or black out momentarily. On several occasions, homes have been found which have beautifully met my needs. A business was established in which I could serve God and my fellow men. Years ago I was healed of a goiter through the understanding that there is no material substance and that no accumulation of so-called matter can be substance.

A few years later through the help of a Christian Science practitioner and by my holding to the truths learned through the previous experience, a large internal growth passed away painlessly. In working on this problem I consistently studied Mrs. Eddy's many references to the word "purity," given in the Concordances to Science and Health and the other writings by Mrs. Eddy. Also, each day I claimed the truth of this passage from "Unity of Good" by Mrs. Eddy (p. 60): "This false sense of substance must yield to His eternal presence, and so dissolve." These words were proved true, and the healing has been permanent.
