Eyeballs restored

On Page 459, we are told that Mrs. Emilie Hulin recounted this in her reminiscences of the Primary Class she had with Mrs. Eddy in November 1888:

     Mrs. Eddy was showing in class the definition of God…and showing that “Mind” is the “all seeing.”
     She said that through the understanding of this she had healed a man of blindness whose eyeballs had been destroyed, and the eyeballs were resorted whole.  Someone in the class asked, “Well, if Mind is all that sees, why was it necessary for the eyeballs to be restored?”
     Mrs. Eddy replied: “Ah, I anticipated that you would ask that question.  The effect of Christian Science is this.  Science restores that standard of perfection which mortal mind calls for.  If the eyeballs had not been restored, no one would have believed him when he said he could see.”


How enlightening is that!
