Christian Science first caught my attention when life seemed bleak and desolate. My husband of six months had passed on suddenly, and grief and emptiness overwhelmed me. Earlier, a friend at work had given me a copy of the Sentinel, but it had lain in a drawer, unopened. Now, in my time of great need, I came across the magazine and read it. A new world opened up for me, and, with the friend who had given me the Sentinel, I started regularly attending services in a Church of Christ, Scientist.
Each day I rushed home from work to spend the whole evening, far into the night, studying Science earnestly. I needed very little sleep at this time. Soon my deep grief and gloom were dispelled. God's ever-present love enveloped me, wiping out all sense of loss and separation. It was a wonderful feeling.
