Christian Science was presented...

Margaret A. Byford

Christian Science was presented to me many years ago when I was living in the United States. Since childhood I had been searching for something more than an orthodox church could offer me. Questions relating to the nature of God and to our purpose in this world remained unanswered until I was growing into womanhood and a friend spoke to me of Christian Science. The textbook was placed in my hands, as were the other writings of Mrs. Eddy, and I felt at once that this religion was the treasure for which I had been seeking.

Although I studied as often as I could, I did not gain a proper understanding for many years, and during this time I clung to my former church. However, the seed was developing, and in due course I took the requisite steps to become a member of The Mother Church.

Gratitude wells up in my heart for the numerous healings I have experienced. The first one was that of a boil on my chin. It was large, and much concern was expressed by my colleagues in the office. A kind practitioner did prayerful work for me, with the result that no pain was experienced, and no time was lost at the office. This healing has always appeared outstanding to me, because my understanding of Christian Science was so slight that I depended entirely on the work of the practitioner. I had the simple faith of a child.
