Recalling the many blessings I have had through the application of the wonderful truth taught in Christian Science, I share the following healing.

Years ago when I first started attending a branch Church of Christ, Scientist, I had a growth on my face. It had not caused any discomfort until a dear neighbor remarked about it and insisted that it would be so simple to have a doctor remove it. She knew I was a student of Christian Science, so I told her I would much rather be healed through Christian Science. Later she mentioned it again in the presence of my husband. He also said I should make an appointment with a doctor. He was extremely opposed to Christian Science. At his insistence I made an appointment. While I was waiting to see the doctor, an emergency case came in, and my appointment had to be postponed. After three attempts to see the doctor, and having my appointment postponed each time, I went home, sat down, and quietly prayed and listened for guidance.

Then I picked up The Christian Science Journal; it opened to the testimony section. The testimony I read was written by a former medical nurse. She told of having seen Christian Science heal a case when all else failed in the hospital where she worked. Out of curiosity she obtained a copy of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy. She had a growth on her face. As she read Science and Health she reasoned that God must love her just as much as He loved those whose healings had come through Christian Science after medical care in the hospital had failed to heal them. With this reasoning she had an instantaneous healing of the growth on her face.
