HEALING
OF A GOITER
When Christian Science found me I
was afflicted with what physicians call a goiter. As I began
to read the literature I thought that this growth would
disappear instantly, but soon saw that before such a healing
could be realized I would have not only to believe in
Christian Science but to change my ways of reasoning and my
contradictive mind. This was a long process and the
condition remained three years longer. At the end of this
period, as I was returning to America from Europe, I fell
sick and everybody thought I was dying. I did not take any
medicine but was under Christian Science treatment. After
seven weeks' sickness I suddenly became better. A month
later I was healed and able to work. During this time the
goiter disappeared. In the fall of 1918 a new disease came
upon me and the people around began again to believe me
dying, but with the help of a practitioner I promptly
recovered and three weeks later successfully passed a
physical examination and was accepted into military
service.
For these healings and
many others I am indeed very thankful. I am also grateful to
our Leader, Mrs. Eddy, for showing us the way.
