It is with a deep sense of gratitude for Christ Jesus, for Mrs. Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, for my parents, who brought me up in this wonderful religion, and mostly for God, the All-in-all, that I testify to His healing power.

A few years ago I was plagued by a wart on my left hand. Because few people noticed it, I dismissed it as unimportant. Soon a second wart appeared on that hand. Then I really began applying the truth. From Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, I learned that God is omnipresent. This sentence was particularly helpful to me (p. 393): "Have no fear that matter can ache, swell, and be inflamed as the result of a law of any kind, when it is self-evident that matter can have no pain nor inflammation." The only law that said the warts were real was an erroneous one—a lie. When I understood these truths clearly, the first wart disappeared, and soon the second was gone too.

More recently I injured my ankle while at a friend's home. The ankle was cut by a rusty chain. I went home immediately, cleaned the wound, and forgot about it. Roughly three days later in school, it began to ache and swell, so that friends anxiously offered advice on how to stop the swelling; and much fear of blood poisoning was voiced.
