As I progress through our lovely book "Christian Science: continuing evidence of Christ-healing", I've noticed testimonies from all over the world, so I wondered if I would find any from Australia.
I did! See pages 109 - 112.
In his account, immediately following a fall from a collapsed ladder, the testifier prayed with a sentence from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy (p. 476):
Man in God's image is unfallen and eternal.
Later, from his hospital bed, he continued to pray.
He also had daily contact with a Christian Science practitioner. Within six days of good progress he was "discharged to a rehabilitation centre" from where he was released much earlier than predicted. Later, a brace that had been fitted was removed when "the surgeon showed photographic evidence that the spine had healed properly".
I love this testimony and I loved reading and pondering the passages from Scripture, the Christian Science hymnal, and the writings of Mary Baker Eddy that John Bruce prayed with.
Love is universal. God is right here, right now, no matter where we are.
How comforting and thrilling it is to know this.
Thank you to the testifiers for taking the time to share these accounts.

That testimony is inspiring! Thank you.
