"To mortal sense Science seems at first obscure, abstract, and dark; but a bright promise crowns its brow. When understood, it is Truth's prism and praise." So writes our dear Leader in Science and Health (p. 558). My first impression of Christian Science, when a friend took me to a church service, was that it was obscure. I was reared in an orthodox faith in which I found no satisfaction. My friend assured me I would receive it through the study of Christian Science.

Mrs. Eddy's chapter on Prayer in Science and Health opened a brighter way of life for me. What a revelation to find out the truth of God and His perfect creation! There were only six months left before my twentieth birthday, after which I could not attend Sunday School; so I enrolled.

The first proof I had of the healing power of this great truth was during an attack of influenza. A fellow pupil, knowing my circumstances, asked our Sunday School teacher for help for me. This was effectively given, and I was healed; in two weeks I was back at work. I rejoiced that this healing was indeed the result of Christ Jesus' teachings put into practice.
