I began to study Christian Science...

Zoila Brillante Tellez

I began to study Christian Science with the great desire to find God, to know Him, to hear the voice of Him that invites us to drink of the water of eternal spirituality, to obey Him. At that time I was going through a series of disappointments, sorrows, and moral afflictions, together with many bodily ailments, and these presented a sorry picture of me.

Months before I knew of Christian Science, I suffered a visible affection in the neck; this was diagnosed by a doctor as goiter. He advised me, because of the advanced state of the disease, to have an operation.

As I was the only support of my family, I could not leave my work; so I had to wait until the summer vacation to decide on the operation. But before that time it was proved that "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble" (Ps. 46:1). A friend and co-worker spoke to me of Christian Science and gave me a copy of the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy.
