Hi guys! Doubling up this week! After I wrote my last post,
we went to IHOP and that was pretty crazy.
Lets just talk about how cool God is.
Because in one day he gave me an entire sermon to preach, and then the
next day BOOM. EVEN COOLER.
But back to IHOP. We
go, and I'm excited- we hadn’t gone in a few weeks and it is always an
adventure. But I start feeling this
massive headache come on. I have no idea
why or what caused it, but it was bad. The
worst part was when I went to reach for my trusty bottle of aspirin in my purse
and realized I changed purses before we left.
The bottle of Excedrin Migraine didn’t make the switch. After kicking myself over this realization, I
went to go hang out in the back of the sanctuary during worship because it was
so bad. My own voice hurt my head, much
less the loud worship music, flashing lights, and other craziness going
on. I was seriously considering going to
hide out in the bathroom when I decided to just give it to God instead. So I threw up a pretty casual prayer saying, “God,
you’re going to have to do something about this, because this is stupid and I
don’t want to have to leave and not be able to participate in worshipping
you.” Not even a minute later, the
pastor asks a girl to share her testimony of how she had been healed there a
few years ago. And then he said, “If you
need healing for any reason, even if it’s just a migraine, I want you to raise
your hand. The rest of you, if you see
someone around you raising their hand, I want you to pray healing over
them.” Now I don’t usually ask for
healing because of a migraine, they’re just part of my life, but I'm not an
idiot. Even if he did all but slap me in
the face. So I raised my hand. People came and put their hands on me and
prayed. And suddenly my headache started
to fade away. They prayed some more, and
it was totally gone. That’s a new
one. And a whole bunch of other people
got healed that night. My roommate
hasn’t been able to bend over and touch her toes without pain in her back and
hips for years. Now she can.
Cool stuff huh?
God is so Good. And really cool too.
Love
Ali
