I hope it is never too late...
to share my story of God's miraculous healing.
In 2004 I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. I had been having neurological problems for 25+ years but the Drs couldn't seem to diagnose the problem. By 2005 my disability was increasing to the point that I needed a cane for walking, I was experiencing numbness, pain, and had many cognitive issues as well.
One Sunday morning during the worship service I felt God asking me, "Do you want to be healed?" I Immediately thought about the paralyzed man at the pool of Bethesda whom Jesus asked the same question. Now I must admit I always thought that was a dumb question for Jesus to ask. I mean, who wouldn't want to healed? But standing there while everyone around me was singing praises to the Lord, I had to admit some rather ugly things about myself. I wasn't sure I wanted to be healed. I was getting a lot of benefit from my illness. People were concerned about me for the first time in my life. They asked how I was doing. They actually seemed to CARE about me. My husband opened doors for me, carried the groceries, helped out around the house. None of this would have been happening if I wasn't sick.
It took me a good few minutes of soul searching before I replied to God, "Yes, I want to be healed." God said, "Meet me down front."
I walked to the front of the church, steadying myself on the pews and knelt not knowing how I would ever get up from that position. Suddenly the inside of my head felt like someone had dropped a red-hot coal in there. The heat radiated throughout my head. I knew I had been touched by God and totally healed.
I sat there praising the Lord and laughing uncontrollably for several minutes before I got up and literally danced back to my seat.
I have not had a single symptom since and I know that I never will.
God created us and can recreate us at any time. If you are in need of a healing, don't give up. God is still in the miracle working business. I don't know why He chose to heal me. I know I didn't deserve it. My faith is no greater than anyone elses. All I know is that He did.
I also know that my physical healing pales in comparison to the healing of my heart and mind that He accomplished with my salvation. But that's a story for another day.

Annette,
NO IT'S NEVER TOO LATE!
WOW....what an awesome testimony. It sent chills up and down my spine. I struggle with epilepsy and now diabetes....For several months I have asked for healing. I have toyed with the idea of stopping my meds and just taking a leap of faith, but my husband being the one who has witnessed the seizures has begged me not to. I'm a long time nurse and I know what abruptly stopping the medication can do but I also know what my GOD can do. For now I'm waiting on my Lord for the answer but I know that he will heal me in time. To hear your testimony was so uplifting.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS WITH ME!
Blessings.

I have to share a little more...while I was being healed I told the Lord he would have to be the one to tell my husband as I had $1500.00 worth of meds at home that my DH would NOT let me just throw away. My DH experienced the same fire in HIS head and the Lord told him that I had been healed. Each of us shared our experience with the Pastor before we talked to each other. Neither knew about the other's "hot head" experience...Isn't God great?
