At one time my hearing had so deteriorated that I was unable to understand any of the testimonies given at the Wednesday testimony meeting in our branch Church of Christ, Scientist.

Then about four years ago, while I was still experiencing the hearing difficulty, I was asked by the executive board of our branch church to serve as chairman of the lecture committee in our church. I doubted whether, under the circumstances, I should accept the position. But after prayerfully considering the matter, I decided to accept.

A Christian Science practitioner who had been praying for me recommended I study certain passages from Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy. This statement proved especially helpful (p. 489): "The corporeal senses are the only source of evil or error. Christian Science shows them to be false, because matter has no sensation, and no organic construction can give it hearing and sight nor make it the medium of Mind." After I had prayed, diligently pondering this statement of truth for several days, the hearing difficulty was overcome.
