Joyful was the day when I accepted Christian Science in my life

Irene G. Phelps

Joyful was the day when I accepted Christian Science in my life. It answered all my questions and brought healing to heart and mind through the power of divine Love.

Jesus said (John 8:32), "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." A short time ago I fell on a sidewalk in New York City and broke my wrist. It was very painful, and the picture was frightening. Instantly I knew that man as the representative of God could not fall. He lives in God's care. All movement is in infinite being. The healing of the wrist came soon through the prayerful help of a Christian Science practitioner.

I have had many healings through prayer in the past—colds, sprains, back injury, and warts on the bottom of my feet. These healings have been permanent. I have enjoyed a peaceful and harmonious transition in moving my home from New York City, where I lived for many years, to Connecticut.

Mrs. Eddy has written in the Manual of The Mother Church (Art. XVII, Sect. 2), "Gratitude and love should abide in every heart each day of all the years." This message fills my thought daily.

Words can't express my gratitude for the many branch Churches of Christ, Scientist, that place Christian Science literature in the backstage racks in many theaters from here to the West Coast. To have the literature so available was very helpful to me in all the years that I traveled.

I am grateful to God for Christ Jesus, who gave this truth to the whole world, for Mrs. Eddy for membership in The Mother Church, and for class instruction.
