I have relied completely on God for fifty years

Mabel L. Helder

I have relied completely on God for fifty years. Through the study of Christian Science I have had many healings as I have gained a better understanding of God and my relationship to Him.

We read in Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy (p. 486): "Suppose one accident happens to the eye, another to the ear, and so on, until every corporeal sense is quenched. What is man's remedy? To die, that he may regain these senses? Even then he must gain spiritual understanding and spiritual sense in order to possess immortal consciousness." Many years ago I had a healing of deafness in one ear. There was deafness in both my mother's and my father's family, and all my brothers and sisters suffered from poor hearing at an early age.

I was the only one interested in Christian Science, and one day my youngest brother asked how it came that all my brothers and sisters were getting hard of hearing and I was not. Evidently I did not protect my thought from this suggestion of error as I should have, and some time later I became deaf.
