Since 1918 Christian Science has been my only physician. To me, it was natural to love Mrs. Eddy and Christian Science, and it has been a joyful experience to learn to use the truths of our religion.

About 1924 a loved one of our family passed on, and soon afterward I suffered from a nervous breakdown. Because I was fearful of what I might do and ashamed of what people might see or say about what I did, I had no desire to go among people. A Christian Science practitioner, who was also a very dear friend, pointed out to me that man's only concern is to know himself as God's reflection. Fear of other people's opinions was cast out, and I was healed.

On page 14 of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy is this helpful statement: "Entirely separate from the belief and dream of material living, is the Life divine, revealing spiritual understanding and the consciousness of man's dominion over the whole earth. This understanding casts out error and heals the sick, and with it you can speak 'as one having authority.'" Mrs. Eddy shows us how to have authority and thereby to heal.
