John Andrew Quarrie

I should like to relate the healing of a condition of deteriorating flesh which rapidly spread until in about three weeks there was a large, deep wound. The condition was never diagnosed, nor was a name ever given to it. And I promised the superintendent of the Christian Science House, where I was taken during the first week, not to look at it.

This promise I kept, but one day the corner of the bandage slipped, and what I saw gave me a shock, but only for a moment, for I immediately turned to God with an absolute conviction that "with God all things are possible" (Matt. 19:26). And never at any time had I the slightest doubt of being healed.

A practitioner helped me. During our talks the disease was never mentioned. We talked of the great Bible characters, including Jesus, of his healings, and of some of the recorded healing by our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy. And instead of this experience being considered a calamity, it appeared to me as a period of purification and spiritual growth.
