When
I was 16 years old I fell out of the top of a Weeping Willow tree. I had chased a cute red head to the top where we
talked for a long time. Then I said, "let's race back down." Well, I won very quickly. The
branch I stepped on broke away and I fell quickly to the ground crushing 3 vertebre in my lower back. For about
8 years I bore almost constant pain. Many things were difficult for me... even just washing my face. I remember
having to lean my forearms on the sink to splash some water up just to wash my face. If I was standing upright to walk
I was usually okay. But any kind of bending at the waist or stooping was very difficult. I saw the x-rays at that
time. I had definately injured myself badly and, as I said, felt the pain daily in my body for years. Then,
one day, I went to a healing service. I knelt down to pray to Jesus for healing and the pain left my back. It
was truly a miracle. Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. He still heals those who seek him just as
he did over 2 thousand years ago. Won't you call out to him in faith today ! If you are seeking spiritual healing I strongly recommend you click on my "Forgiveness" page. Jesus continues to heal people every day. Very few people seek this healing. Our first
impulse is to run to the doctor to see what kind of medicine we can take to find healing. Doctors and medicine are
fine but even more important than that is prayer. I strongly believe in prayer and medicine. In the gospel of Mark Jesus says, "When you pray believe that you have received whatever you
ask for and it shall be yours." Therefore, when we pray we need to believe that whatever we want he has already
given us. God has already provided everything good through his only Son, Jesus. I could give countless examples of how this method of prayer has worked for myself and other strong
christians. A good example from my own life I can think of right now involves the fact that for about fifteen
years I took sinus medication on almost a daily basis. I would get terrible sinus headaches for days. However,
over the YEARS I would also thank Jesus for healing my sinuses. I would take my medicine and also say, "Thank you
Jesus for healing my sinuses." I would believe that God had already done for me in Jesus what I was asking for.
I believed I was already healed! And, would sometimes tell my guardian angel about it too. Well, sure enough, God honored
his Word and I no longer have to take sinus medication. My perseverence in prayer was rewarded. Is there something in your life that you can believe you have already recieved by faith even though
you don't feel it yet?
