Testimony of Healing January 24, 1959 Issue

My first testimony appeared in...

Christina Simson Ansell

My first testimony appeared in The Christian Science Journal of May, 1941, and I now feel that it is time for a further expression of gratitude for many blessings through the ensuing years. I am particularly grateful for the solving of a serious business problem.

I was a shareholder in a company in New Zealand that had begun to deteriorate so much that instead of its making a profit each year, substantial losses were accumulating to the extent of adding thousands to an overdraft at the bank. Naturally there were no dividends.

At this juncture my solicitors advised me of the serious position of the company and informed me that the bank had every right to foreclose at any moment. This news stirred me considerably. I proceeded to take the human footsteps of discussing the company's latest balance sheet with my bank manager, with an accountant, and with the commercial section of the country concerned in London. All confirmed the solicitor's prediction that the business was in such a state that there was no hope of retrieving the situation. After these interviews, I wrote to the chairman of the directors of the company. In reply he said the directors felt they had done all they could.
