Some years ago Cathy
and I were preparing to attend a night meeting (not a meeting we were leading,
just a program we were attending). Just
before leaving she whacked her foot on the lower sharp, pointed corner of a
kitchen cabinet! The pain was
excruciating. Eventually though she was
able to hobble down to the car and off we went.
After the meeting was
over, Cathy informed me she could not walk!
So I prayed for healing, for an end to pain, and she was able to get up
and slowly walk to the car. We went home, slowly up the stairs, and into the
bedroom where she lay down fully clothed on the bed, propping her foot up on a
pillow. I remember the foot was dramatic! Looking at the bottom, it appeared as if a
pitcher of blood was just being poured in the foot and the foot was filling
with blood from the heel to the toe.
Cathy spoke over the telephone with her brother, a doctor, who told her
she wouldn't be walking for six weeks.
But we quoted the
healing scriptures and prayed for her foot to be healed. Then we just went to sleep for the
night. Now, Cathy had the alarm clock
set for about six or seven in the morning, and it was her custom to leap out of
bed when the alarm clock rang. As morning approached, I suddenly heard the
clock alarm ring. And of course I
instantly remembered how she was used to leaping from the bed. Well, that is
what she did. She leaped up from the bed and came down hard standing on both
feet. And she did not yell in pain! The foot was completely healed. I mean completely. No swelling, nothing.
It was an eight hour
healing!! I use this account often to
describe how sometimes healing takes place over time.
