Sometime ago I was healed of...
Sometime ago I was healed of deafness. For about a year I was completely deaf in one car and partially in the other, It seemed as if I were living in a world of silence, for I could only faintly hear the telephone ring, although the bell had been set at its maximum loudness, and if someone stood next to me and talked, I could not hear even then.
One morning, when I was washing dishes at the sink, I suddenly heard the refrigerator turn on, the clock tick, automobiles passing the house outside, and the roar of an airplane overhead —sounds which I had not been able to hear for about a year. When the telephone rang, it was loud and clear to me. Words cannot express the joy and gratitude I felt, for I knew that I was completely healed.
During the time of this trial there was no fear or doubt regarding my complete healing, and I earnestly tried to forget self and fill my thought with love and kindness for others and to have a deep sense of gratitude.
This healing was brought about through the prayerful work in Christian Science of my husband, the encouragement of a dear friend, and my own prayers. I am most grateful for this healing, for class instruction, and for membership in The Mother Church and the Christian Science Society of this city.
I pray that this healing will encourage others to press on for a complete demonstration, for "God is no respecter of persons" (Acts 10:34).—(Mrs.) Ruth Bohl, Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
It is a joy and a privilege to bear witness to and to verify the healing related by my wife. I am able to do this, since the healing was the result of my working with her to break the mesmeric belief that man's faculties are material and limited.
Knowing that man exists at the standpoint of instant receptivity to the outpourings of divine Love's beneficence and that man cannot be influenced erroneously, we persisted in our consecrated work till we saw the lie of limitation put to flight.—Erwin A. Bohl.
