I cannot express in words what Christian Science has done for my children, or my gratitude that the light of Truth has come to them in their innocent childhood,—healing all claims of sickness, and showing us how to overcome the more stubborn claims of sin.—L. F. B. ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ It is a little over one year since a very esteemed friend, of this city, invited me to partake of the heavenly manna contained in the revelation of “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.” I had, up to that time, been for fifteen years a victim of hip-joint disease; this eventually confining me to my bed, where I had been ten months when the “book of prophecy” was opened for me. I was not long in finding the light I needed,—that gave “feet to the lame,” enabling me now to go, move, and walk, where I will, without crutch or support of any description, save the staff of divine Science. In proportion as my thoughts are occupied with the work in Science, does the peace and joy come inwardly that transforms the blight of error externally. T. G. K, Tacoma, Wash. ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ I wish to acknowledge the blessings which Christian Science has brought to me through reading “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.” My first demonstration was over the tobacco habit; I had smoked for at least fifteen years: I have now no desire for tobacco. I was then healed of two claims which had bound me for ten years. My prayer is that I may be so filled with the truth that I can carry the message to my brother man. F. W. K, Angelica, N.Y. ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ I take advantage of the great privilege granted us, to give my testimony for Christian Science through the pages of our much loved _Journal_. The blessing has been so bountiful that words can but poorly express my gratitude. A little over six years ago, a relative came from Denver, Colorado, to visit us. She was a Christian Scientist, having herself been healed of a severe claim that M. D.’s, drugs, and climate could not relieve; and her husband having been in the drug business, she had had a chance to give them a fair trial. My sister-in-law did not talk much on the subject, as I remember; but what was better, lived the truth before us as she realized it. One day (a blessed day to me), I ventured to open Science and Health, and read the first sentence in the Preface. I closed the book, wondering what more it could contain, this seeming to cover the whole ground. When my sister-in-law returned to the room, I asked her if I might read it. Her reply was, “Yes; but begin at the first.”
