SAVED BY DIVINE
LOVE
Truly,
Christian Science meets every human need. While surf bathing
with two cousins near my home, one cousin and myself were
suddenly swept out of our depth. I could swim, but he could
not. I called to him that we were going out to sea, but
struggle as we would we could not get back. The waves kept
breaking over us with great force and I was carried out
still farther, until at last I had to give up all thought of
ever getting back. I had gone down twice and was just
yielding to despair, when suddenly I seemed to hear a voice
which said: "You are saved. Divine Love is your help." I
immediately said "Yes" mentally, and just then a huge wave
broke over my head, and I knew no more till I found I could
touch the bottom. I was carried to within a few yards of my
cousin, and I caught his hand and we waded out. I dressed
and walked home, about half a mile, with only a few minutes'
rest. I had swallowed a great deal of salt water, but I was
not sick. On reaching home I lay down for about three hours,
and then felt refreshed. After a good night's rest I got up
and did a little work, and the next day I did a big day's
work. I have not suffered any ill effects since, and am now
perfectly well.
I
have had many demonstrations since then, for which I am
deeply grateful. Christian Science has given me much
comfort, and has benefited me in every way. It has indeed
been my guide. It cannot fail to bring peace and love to
those who seek the divine Mind which governs all. "Science
and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy has
shown me the path of Life. I cannot say how grateful I am to
her for the truths contained in her inspired
writings.
