I had loved the Bible from my childhood; but because I did not understand it very well, I was always eager to learn more of God.

The light spoken of in the Bible verse (Ps. 36:9), "With thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light," came to me many years ago when, as the direct answer to prayer, I was guided to turn to Christian Science for help in an extremity. At that time I was in a very weak physical condition, suffering from a nervous disease which the doctors had declared incurable.

One day, while studying the textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, I found this statement on page 14: "Become conscious for a single moment that Life and intelligence are purely spiritual,— neither in nor of matter,—and the body will then utter no complaints." Suddenly the light of understanding that God is man's Life and that therefore man's being must be spiritual and perfect so flooded my consciousness that I was instantaneously and permanently healed.
