MARIE H. KAULHAUSEN

I am finally compelled to express in writing my thanks to God for the many blessings and healing experiences that have been mine through Christian Science. I would like to relate only one of many physical healings and one instance of divine guidance and protection.

On a trip from Capri to Florence one time, I became severely ill with what appeared to be food poisoning. The pain was almost unbearable, and great fear tried to overwhelm me. A friend who was accompanying me insisted on calling a physician from the hotel. But it was Sunday evening, and no physician could be reached. That gave me opportunity to rely completely on God.

In my distress I could hardly think, so I reached for my copy of the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy. I don't remember now which page I turned to, but what I read must have been one of the numerous basic spiritual truths in this book, because I had hardly read for five minutes when I knew that in God's spiritual creation there is no poison, that God is omnipresent. He was there with me and He alone governed me. Instantaneously the pain ceased and there was a natural elimination. I was free! In deep gratitude I went to sleep and woke in the morning with a healthy appetite. There were no further problems.
