E. V. H.

Although deeds are the best proofs of our gratitude, we may express it in words also. About six years ago, I was seeking for a church which I and my two children might join. I searched quietly and prayed for divine guidance. I then heard of Christian Science and borrowed the text-book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," from our city library. I read in it every day, sometimes until after midnight, for I could not leave off; and what a glorious revelation came to me. I felt that this must be the truth, although now and then, something tried to suggest, "Do not be misled!" I looked around for a Christian Science church, and two months later became a member, and one year later so much good had come to me that I was led to take class instruction.

During these six years I have had numberless opportunities to test this truth for myself, my family, and also for others; and I have found that it is the only deliverance from sin and disease.

Twenty years ago, while visiting a friend, I heard that she was afflicted with a skin disease. Fear and disgust seemed to come over me. I cannot exactly describe how and when, but all at once I noticed two spots on my body. The physician gave me different salves and remedies, but nothing helped me. Sometimes the trouble seemed a little better, and then again worse. Now it has disappeared, not a trace of it has remained, and my skin is as white as formerly.

I am infinitely grateful to our heavenly Father and also to our Leader, Mrs. Eddy, for all the good I have received through Christian Science. The more we learn, and the more this truth is revealed to us, the more humble and grateful it makes us.—E. V. H., Cincinnati, O.
