Standing on a Miracle!!!
November 14, 2010
As elders of our church my husband and I
routinely visit the local hospitals to pray for the sick. One morning
about four years ago we received a call from our long time friend
Pauline telling us that her husband John was scheduled to have his leg
removed the following morning. She asked us to please go and pray for
his healing. When I hung up the phone and relayed the message, my
husband and I knew that we had to go. When we arrived at the hospital we
found our friend very depressed at what was soon to take place. While
they talked I realized we had so little time, for the operating room was
reserved for him. As we began to pray, I said "Father I am not here to
ask for a healing because Lord we need a miracle." Only a miracle of God
would stop the surgeon from completing his task. We finished our prayer
and our visit and went on our way. As time would have it we lost
contact with John and
Pauline and never knew how the Lord handled our prayer. Well, praise
His name, 2 weeks ago on Sunday morning the church door opened up and in
came our friends John and Pauline. We were so happy to see them, I
looked down and John had both legs.I then said "We haven't seen or heard
from you since we came to the hospital and prayed for your leg." John
said "When the doctors came in the next day the leg had good color and
blood flow and they cancelled the surgery." "So here I am, standing on a
miracle."
God is a good, good, God. He is
the same yesterday, today and forever. He was and still is, in the
healing business, and miracles still happen!!!
