This testimony should have been written years ago
This testimony should have been written years ago. I have had many proofs of God's healing presence. My parents began the study of Christian Science shortly before I was born. At the time of my birth, the doctors informed my parents that I would not live through the night. My parents prayed for me and I did survive, but the prediction was then made that I would be completely paralyzed. My father and my mother's sister agreed to take me home and release the hospital of all responsibility. A Christian Science practitioner was asked to pray for me, and it was not long before I was completely well and normally active.
I attended school with very few absences. After I graduated I spent six years in the United States Navy and witnessed many proofs of God's protection.
In 1970 I experienced a physical difficulty that kept me from work for days at a time. I spent many sleepless nights in fear. I would wake in the night, gasping for breath, and sit on the side of the bed, praying on the basis that God is my Life until I became calm and my breathing became natural.
