Since my testimony published in 1960 describing my healing...
Since my testimony published in 1960 describing my healing of a back condition, my every need has been met. Established in my own business, I have had many proofs of God's care and guidance.
Recently, in drying myself after showering, I felt a large lump deep under the skin. I knew immediately I needed a strong, corrective truth. I thought of this: Love is "the universal solvent." This comes from Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, where she says (p. 242), "In patient obedience to a patient God, let us labor to dissolve with the universal solvent of Love the adamant of error,—self-will, self-justification, and self-love,—which wars against spirituality and is the law of sin and death."
I received inspiration from daily study of the Bible Lesson in the Christian Science Quarterly and my own prayer. And the concept of Love as "the universal solvent" continued to grow within me. I endeavored to express more love in every activity—driving to work, contact with customers, with family at home, and so forth.
