Christian Science
Testimony
TRANSFORMED
Before
Christian Science found me I was unhappy and miserable. My
trouble was not so much physical as mental, although heart
disease had been growing worse for several years, and I felt
my end drawing nearer from day to day. Then something
wonderful occurred. One day shortly before the end of the
year a dear woman who is a Christian Scientist came into my
store, and during the course of our conversation she
expressed a great deal of love and kindness and explained to
me that God is omnipresent, that He is Life and Love, and
that man has only to heed His instructions in order to be
able to overcome all discords. Her explanations lifted my
burdens, I felt wonderfully relieved, and for the first time
in my life I felt that God is loving and omnipresent. My
surroundings, with which I had been very dissatisfied, now
seemed filled with His presence. I slept peacefully that
night, as never before. Upon waking the next morning I
realized clearly that this loving woman had shown me the
right way to know God.
That
"man's extremity is God's opportunity" I was privileged to
prove, for today I am a happy and healthy woman. I cannot
express my deep thanks to God in words; it is my greatest
desire to follow Him in all His ways. With a grateful heart
I thank our dear Leader, Mrs. Eddy, who has again shown us
the way to Truth through Christian Science.
