Mary C. Sweatt

I learned of Christian Science over forty-five years ago. Though young then, I was ill most of the time, consulting doctors and taking many kinds of medicine, none of which helped me. At a time when I felt a desperate need to be relieved of suffering, someone brought Christian Science to my notice.

There were many spiritual lessons for me to learn, and it was not a quick healing; but the application of the teachings of Science gradually freed me from neurasthenia, stomach trouble, constipation, and tonsillitis. The attacks of the last-named used to be very severe and would keep me in bed many days. Through knowing that Mind, God, governs all, I was also entirely freed from fear of thunderstorms, a fear which had been so extreme that I would be sick for hours when I knew one was expected.

By the time my fourth child was born, I had become a student of Christian Science and had the child at home. A practitioner gave me treatment, and the birth was by far the most harmonious I had ever experienced. I was up in three days instead of being confined to my bed two weeks as I had been before.
