To me Christian Science is the "pearl of great price" (Matt. 13:46), of which Christ Jesus spoke in one of his parables. I consider it of highest worth.

It was thirteen years ago when I was to be operated on for the fourth time and my hospital bed was already reserved. On one of those days a dear friend said to me, "You don't have to undergo an operation." Indeed, it was not necessary. For through her I became acquainted with a Christian Science practitioner, and in a few weeks I was healed of a displaced organ.

On my first visit the practitioner explained to me in a wonderful way the first account of creation in the Bible, in the first chapter of Genesis—the spiritually complete creation in which all creation expresses the perfect God. The feeling that in reality all is good, created in God's likeness, gave me joy and peace. The hold of corporeal sense had been broken! I had only the great desire to learn more about God—as He is understood in Christian Science.
