My first testimony was published...

My first testimony was published in the Sentinel for September 9, 1905. Since that time I have been learning to know the truths of Christian Science and striving to live them. I can now add to my first testimony several accounts of healings, some of which are outstanding.

One morning I got up feeling very ill. I tried to go on with my work as usual, but throughout the day the sense of pain seemed to increase until my whole body was affected. I had had similar attacks before, but never so severe. As there was no relief from the pain, I decided it was an occasion to request the help of a Christian Science practitioner.

I turned to the list of practitioners in The Christian Science Journal, but by the time I had selected a name, I could not read the telephone number or hold the telephone receiver. A familiar quotation from the textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, kept repeating itself to my thought. Only parts of the quotation were clear, but I pondered them. I think my healing began then, for soon I was able to lift the textbook to my lap and turn the pages to the reference I needed.
