Our family has witnessed many healings through reliance...
Our family has witnessed many healings through reliance on Christian Science, including those of growths, rheumatic fever, and broken bones. I have had healings of sinus trouble and the effects of a fall.
About two years ago I was experiencing some discomfort accompanied by haemorrhaging. I called a Christian Science practitioner for help through prayer. He drew my attention to a statement from Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy included in that week's Bible Lesson: "He [Christ Jesus] claimed no intelligence, action, nor life separate from God." The practitioner encouraged me to apply this truth to myself. I was able to go on a previously arranged holiday, and the complete healing came a little later after I read from Psalms, "And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever." One dictionary gave "unimpaired state, soundness, purity" as one of the definitions of integrity. I acknowledged my God-given integrity, and very soon all discomfort disappeared and I was free of the difficulty.
It must be obvious that I am very grateful for our Bible Lessons provided in the Christian Science Quarterly. Membership in The Mother Church and service in a branch church are added joys. I must also record my thanks to the friend who introduced me to Christian Science and who patiently encouraged me to study Science and Health and to expect that I would demonstrate, through healing, what I was learning.
