I was afraid to open my eyes at moments, but kept praising the Lord and saying “Lord, I know you can straighten and heal my finger.” And when praise and worship was over I looked and yes, my finger was straightened, not all the way, but I can tell you today, five days later, my finger looks normal and has no pain.  

For three weeks, my left index finger had been in continual pain. It actually felt like someone was pounding my finger with a hammer and the bones on that one finger were being crushed, giving me a constant, slow, throbbing pain. I would toss and turn throughout the night. I was not able to bend my finger or hold the steering wheel without pain. I was taking several over-the-counter pain medications but was only getting temporary short periods of relief.    

I got so caught up in my world of daily life stresses with work and praying for peace at work, traffic, and self-control for myself and others on the road, and feeling guilty of not having enough time and energy to take of care duties for an elderly parent. I did not even think that I was worthy to ask the Lord for healing.

Thank you, Jesus, for loving me where I am and loving me for who I am and taking me out of the box of life’s challenges. Thank you for allowing this healing to be another testimony in my life that you do bless us even when we feel we are the unblessable. Thank you for my church and for your faithful servant, Michael Sullivant.
