At long last may I express in written form the gratitude I feel for the healings, both physical and moral, our family has enjoyed? The study of Christian Science has shown me that fear has no part in the life of the real man and that the guidance of the Christ leads to fulfillment and joy in our human experience. This is in sharp contrast to my attitude of eleven years ago. Then I was willing to do almost anything to escape the responsibilities connected with the rearing of my family, thinking that I could not cope with them.

The family group remains the same, but harmony and joy have replaced discord and despair in our understanding of each other. Our two children, who at that time were nervous, rebellious, and hard to handle, are now finding purpose, satisfaction, and undreamedof success in completing their education.

Through doing the tasks assigned to me in a branch Church of Christ, Scientist, I found joy in all of my work. I also learned how to demonstrate better the qualities of thoroughness, carefulness, and accuracy. In conjunction with my study of the Bible and Mrs. Eddy's writings, a dictionary was most helpful in enabling me to understand the real nature of the gifts that God has bestowed upon man, His idea.
