I would like to express my great gratitude for two healings I had some years ago. Previous to my gaining a knowledge of Christian Science I had suffered intensely from back trouble. Finally I was operated on for a slipped disk. For years I had been given pills to alleviate the pain, and taking these had undermined my health. Also, not long after the operation, a lawsuit in which I had become unjustly involved was to be tried in court. I felt that mentally and physically I had reached the end of my endurance. I was convinced that it would be impossible for me to go through with a cross-examination in court, something I had been dreading for a year and a half.

At this time a relative introduced me to this Science. He also suggested that I ask a Christian Science practitioner to help me through those critical days. This suggestion seemed to me to be completely unrealistic, but I did seek the help of a practitioner, who agreed to support me through prayer. The practitioner encouraged me to recognize that divine justice will always be the victor, and that God is always with me.

In court the following day I was in the witness box for an hour. I was able to answer the questions put to me with strength and complete poise, and the case was decided in my favor. I myself and others there who knew me were astounded at my ability to handle the situation as well as I had. But I realized that divine Truth had supported me in what had seemed a remarkable way.
