God's healing hands

I am very thankful for everything God has done for me. Especially when it comes to healing. A few years back I was in an accident where I was burnt with cooking oil and fire (the cooking oil caught fire). I sustained second degree burns on my legs and third degree burns on my feet (the boiling cooking oil landed on my feet).

I was rushed to the emergency room where they gave me a morphine shot and some pain killers, oh and cream for the burns. I was told that I will have scars and I won't be able to walk for quite a few months.

This happened just after my wife and I decided to give everything to God. I didn't understand why this happened but didn't question God at all, because I knew that everything works together for good to those who love him Rom 8:28. I couldn't walk and was bedridden for the foreseeable future. I couldn't get into the bath to clean myself. My wife would help me to the bathroom and then wash me (as romantic as this sounds, it hurt like hell). After about an hour she would put the cream on the burnt areas and dress all the wounds.

My wife and I prayed constantly and so did my family. After a week I went to my GP and he told me that I must be careful not to contract gangrene or septicemia. At this stage I was starting to become a little worried about what people was telling me.

I recovered completely with no scars to show for it. I was up and walking again in 1 months time. God healed me miraculously and I give Him all the praise. Afterwards I understood this "If what the world is telling you differs from what God told you, do not believe the world".

Blessings
