Christian
Science Testimony
FOREIGN
MATERIAL REMOVED FROM EYE
About
a year ago, while at my work, a soft spot in the emery wheel
with which I was working flew off so quickly and
unexpectedly that a great deal of the emery went into my
eye, making it impossible for me to see. From a material
standpoint the pain was almost unbearable. Those around me
insisted that I go to a doctor at once; and I did so, in the
meantime declaring the truth about God and man as best I
knew how. Instead of my getting any relief from the doctor,
he made the condition worse; so I at once telegraphed to a
Christian Science practitioner for help. I was able to sleep
all night, and on awakening found that a considerable amount
of the emery had come out while I had been asleep. To say
that I was grateful is to put it very mildly. There was one
piece of emery which had been driven into the pupil of the
eye, so that I had difficulty in seeing. But after a week of
Christian Science help and while walking along a street in
Boston, I suddenly felt something fall out of my eye; and
from that day on I have been able to see as well as
ever.
I
could tell of many beautiful demonstrations I have had since
I found this great truth, ten or twelve years ago. I feel
very grateful to God and Mrs. Eddy, and also to the dear
practitioner who has so lovingly helped me. I do not know
what I should do without this wonderful truth that meets our
every need. It is my desire to reflect more and more of the
love our Father has bestowed upon us.
