On page 50 of her book "Retrospection and Introspection," Mrs. Eddy says, "Loyal students speak with delight of their pupilage, and of what it has done for them, and for others through them." I feel that the time has come for me to "speak with delight" of what the study of Christian Science has done for me.

Since I have been brought up as a Christian Scientist from earliest childhood, it has always been the natural and logical thing for me in times of physical distress to seek healing from divine Principle, God, who, as the Psalmist tells us, "is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble" (Ps. 46:1).

For several months I suffered from a severe pain in the lower right side of my body. Although this condition was not quickly healed, I was able throughout the entire period to go to work and to fulfill all my other obligations. One night, during an acute attack, I called upon a member of the family for prayerful help, which was devotedly given. I fell asleep almost immediately and found upon waking that I was well. This took place about eight years ago, and I have not had an attack since.
