Gladys Ella Gibbs

There is no aspect of my human experience which has not been improved through the application of the teachings of Christian Science. Since taking up its study, I have enjoyed excellent health. I have not used medicine in any form; nor have I employed the services of a medical practitioner, apart from obtaining necessary certificates of health.

Shortly after taking up the study of Christian Science, I realized that it is essential to gain a spiritual understanding of home as taught in Christian Science. I studied Mrs. Eddy's writings and read every article I could find on the subject, convinced that if I could understand the spiritual idea, the human need would be taken care of. It was indeed gratifying to see the human sense of home keep pace with the improved spiritual concept.

During the air raids over Britain in World War II, I devoted half an hour a day to prayerful metaphysical work on home because so many people in Britain were being rendered homeless. Some time later I found myself, once again, in need of a home. Rented flats and houses were unprocurable. For three weeks I did not mention my need to anyone, but I held faithfully to the truth that as a spiritual idea I had a home in God, divine Mind, a home of which I could never be deprived.
