I love to look back to the days...

I love to look back to the days when I began the study of Christian Science, over thirty years ago, to the wonder I felt when I first realized its healing power and the desire was awakened in me to learn more of its truths. How awed I was at the power of God as material beliefs were discarded like useless garments!

For several years I had been suffering from a war disability and was adhering to certain diets and taking medicine. I was enabled to drop these practices and was healed of the inharmonious conditions through reading the textbook, Science and Health. Healings of smoking and of social drinking soon followed.

While I was on a long hike over rough, icy ground in subzero weather, my foot was severely frozen. Since I was at the time still on Navy disability compensation, it was necessary for me to report the condition to the Government doctors. They prescribed medicines and predicted the serious aftereffects, chilblains, from which I had previously been a frequent sufferer. However, I studied diligently the Bible and Mrs. Eddy's writings and used none of the medicines prescribed.
