How I Found Christian Science November 12, 2018 ISSUE

A search for health results in healing

Ivonne Gil Rivas

For a long time, I have wanted to pay a long-standing debt of gratitude by testifying to the marvelous events that have occurred since I became acquainted with Christian Science.

When I found Science about ten years ago, I had been suffering for a year from acute abdominal pain that got worse as time passed. I didn’t want to see a doctor for a diagnosis, for fear of what I might be told, so I tried positive thinking and other alternative therapies. But none of these resulted in healing, and I began searching for help on the internet. The truth is, I was tired of praying as I had been, tired of the alternative healing methods, tired of reading self-help books, and tired most of all of the hopelessness of thinking that this was my fate.
