Many of you many not know but for the last three months I have been having a constant irregularity of the rhythm of my heart beat (I mean constant). I was beginning to have difficulty in focusing on the very basics of life and felt like everyday was a challenge just to make it through the day. My faith began to draw weak and I started feel like I was not worthy to be part of my fathers house . . . . I went to doctors who had no answers, the specialist has hooked me up to an event recorder which I still walk around with as we speak and I am certain it will document my miracle and prove that the real physician stepped in after much prayer of others for me . . .!!! I now realize that anything that causes us to draw closer to the cross is a good cause despite how difficult it is to bear.
Literally in an instant all the symptoms disappeared ... I was taken by such surprise that I had to ask Monique if I was dreaming ... The past 3 days I have been 100% symptom free and feeling like a new human being. As far as what I have felt over the last 3 months and what I felt over the last 3 days this is my miracle that I claim in the name of Jesus!!! There was a hesitation for me to make this claim as I thought I should wait a few weeks to see if it is really gone, but the Lord revealed to me that it is through faith that this claim can even be made.
Well today as I reflect on my miraculous healing, I was drawn to the scripture John 15 vs 1-17 spoken at church on Sunday that teaches us why God allows us to go through what we deem as challenges but he views as pruning our branches to allow us to be more fruitful. If we are obedient to his word it teaches us to love one another as he loves us ... he calls us friends and not servants because a servant does not know his master's business and we know our father's works and business. When we are saved we are branches on the holy vine ... If our branch separates from the vine we whither and die!
I would like to thank my wife Monique whom I know prayed in great faith for my healing and all those in our church community who prayed for me!! The Bible teaches us that where two or more gather in his name he is present . . . . I can't tell you where in the scripture it is but I know it is there!! :-)
I would like to thank God for our Pastor Russ who has been a beacon of strength for me since moving back to South Florida which I am sure he doesn't even know. God uses us as vessels to carry his word to believers and non-believers, but his word lives in certain people, others it flows through them . . . . . his Word lives in Pastor Russ!
All Glory to God! This is my testimony and witness.
