Thank you God!

For the past few months, I've been having an eye infection. A broken blood vessel which seems to have found a permanent home in my right eye. As a result of that infection, I have been getting occasional headaches. Sometimes, these headaches would get so bad that I would need a painkiller to suppress it.

For the past few weeks, I've been going up for healing during charismatic and nothing seems to be happening. Last Friday, I wasn't sure if I wanted to go for healing. In a certain sense, I guess I was demoralized or felt that maybe God didn't want me to be healed yet. On the other hand, I so badly wanted to be cured and I know that nothing would be impossible for the Divine Healer. Hence, being the faithless person that I am, I decided to ask God for a sign. A very specific sign. I asked God to speak to me through the worship leader, (Coz I knew that Jason has the gift of discernment), and if Jason asked anyone with a headache to go up for healing, I will go.

Well, as you would have guessed by now, Jason said that there's someone who is having migraine problems and it is affecting his/her life. Taking this as a sign (how can it not be!), I stepped up and prayed for healing.

And finally, after months of praying and interceding, God has taken my headache away from me. I know I'm truly healed because when I had a beer on Sat night, I didn't get a headache! Ha...

I guess at the end of the day, what I'm trying to tell you is that God is real. Don't wait until a big trial in your life to believe that.
