The benefits that come with the understanding in Christian Science of the relationship of God and man as creator and idea have been unfolding to me since 1930, when I married a girl reared from childhood in this religion. Healings experienced by my wife and son, and the help it was to me in business even before I was a church member, impressed me with the value of Christian Science to mankind. The first experience that aroused my interest was the healing which my wife describes in her endorsement to this testimony.

My interest was rewarded. I had held one position for many years. It involved very important, interesting work, but each time there was an opportunity for promotion, someone else was selected and I stood still. During a Christian Science lecture I was greatly impressed with the explanation of the word "wait" in the Bible promise (Isa. 40: 31), "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength."

After all human steps had failed, I sought help from a practitioner. He convinced me that I could not expect God to lift me bodily out of a situation, as I had always believed He would, but that an understanding of God would lift up my thought and lead me to my right place.
