This happened in September 2008.
I woke up today with a swollen throat. It hurt to talk, even to open my mouth to whisper. and my sinuses were acting up as well. I teared up just looking at a bright light. My muscles ached. My body didn’t seem to want to move. I spent several minutes just sitting still and praying, and my prayer was this: Lord, I call upon Your power to heal me now. This is not going to bring me down Lord, my life for you as long as I can serve. And I willed myself to just stand up and get moving. The healing came, just as I knew it would. I noticed that as I was complaining to my roommate about my pains, my throat really hurt, like it was being scraped with knives. But when I was telling her that I was going to the camp anyway (“I can’t stop,” were my exact words), my throat stopped hurting. It caught me by surprise, and I just closed my mouth for a while, thinking it was a fluke. But as I went about preparing to leave, I realised I truly was healed. I rushed through the things I had to do, and I found out the muscle aches were gone as well.
Instant healing. Just like that. God is real.
