It is with great humility that I offer this testimony

Dorothy M. Cowan

It is with great humility that I offer this testimony. I was raised in Christian Science from a small child, and most problems have yielded quickly after dedicated study of the truths of Christian Science. Complete faith in God's power reversed quickly the medical diagnosis that one of our children was born a blue baby and had little chance for survival. The infant was brought home perfectly healed in less than a week. The attending physician admitted God's power had produced the healing.

We have had quick healings of ivy poisoning, sprains, colds and scarlet fever; some through my own prayer, others with the help of Christian Science practitioners. Mental depression has given place to joy. We have had needs met in financial matters.

The healing I wish to relate has brought me much progress in understanding God's care. I had flu, which was very slow in yielding, although faithful help was being given by a practitioner. Relapse and discouragement were conquered. As I rejoiced over this part of the healing, another difficulty presented itself. It seemed hard to take a deep breath, and coughing was painful. The practitioner was called again but the condition did not yield. Again I became fearful.
