I have had many occasions over the years to be grateful for Christian Science, and it is now time for me to give thanks for a healing that has been some years in coming. I do not know the medical diagnosis of the trouble, but at times I had great feelings of debilitation in a variety of ways. This is no longer present and I can only express joy at the release from those limitations.
This healing came, not from a great flash of understanding, but through persistent prayer, daily study of the Bible and Science and Health, reading The Christian Science Journal and the Sentinel, and undertaking class instruction. From this prayer and study I learned that as God is absolute, perfect, so man in His image is complete and whole; that illness is a mistaken belief; that one can never fall from purity and wellness; that divine Mind controls and governs man harmoniously; that the correct view of man heals.
As a result of my steadily growing understanding of the perfection of God and man, what had plagued me for many years has disappeared. This must have happened quite some time ago, although I do not know exactly when. What I do know is that at last, with deep gratitude to God and His Christ, there is nothing of this problem left to heal.
