- And signs shall follow the believer - When I was 17 I was diagnosed with PCOS, and was told with the severity of it, it would be very hard for me to ever conceive. I walked away in tears. I wasnt interested in having kids at the moment; but I did want to someday have kids. About a week later, I went to a family friends family reunion, and this Woman came up to me and touched my stomach. She said that God had shown her that I needed to be healed. I asked her healed of what, because she nor did anyone else know of my diagnosis except for my Mom, and a few other people. She said I have a disorder that would make it difficult to conceive; but that the Lord was going to heal me. She started praying over me, and within seconds a great number of people gathered all around me putting there hands on me, praying for me as the Woman was praying. I got so weak that I lunged towards another Woman and she caught me. I remember trying to hold on to her with all my strength, because I was so weak and my legs were trying to fold to bring me to the ground. She held me up, and everyone continued praying over me. I was bathed in my tears! I cant recall ever crying so hard except for when I was baptized a few months later. The Woman finished praying and at that moment I regained my strength. She told me I was healed and I believed it. Then she told me God was going to use me to be a bridge to bring people to Christ. I went to the doctor a few days later to get test done again, and the doctor was in complete shock when she told me my hormone count came back completely normal! I never understood what the Woman meant, that I was going to be a bridge for Christ, until I was sitting in my AFCOE class a few months ago. We were in study and it hit me all of a sudden. I was there for a reason. I even started crying to myself at that very moment. The week before I went, was a very eventful week. I was stressed about money, what all it would cost. The day I was to submit my application, as I was filling it out online, my internet stopped working right as I was in the middle of filling it out! My brand new modem had quit working.. yes new modem. I had to go to my Moms to do it. This was on a Monday. Then on Thursday, we woke up to our carpet being flooded.. the hot water heater pipe had busted in the middle of the night. What it cost to purchase a new water heater and have everything fixed is what it cost for me to go to Kansas City, MO for the AFCO training. Then on Friday Jade woke up sick. I was scared the daycare wasnt going to accept taking Jade with her having a fever. Then on Monday the day I was to leave I woke up sick. I mean sick sick! I only had 2 hours of sleep to top it off. I couldnt fall asleep till midnight, and woke up at 2 a.m from being sick; then I laid in bed till 5. I finally forced myself to get up. I was NOT going to let anything get in my way of going that day. I was dead tired and very sick. It was a huge struggle, but I claimed Gods promise - I can do all things through Christ Jesus who strengthens me... then I rebuked satan, and I was on my way. It was a 6 hr drive and I pushed through it. I did have a miracle happen before I made my trip. I was looking around for a hotel, and I was conversing with my Mom. She asked me why couldnt I call Nancy ( One of my Moms best friends; also my second Mom ) and ask if I could stay with her. I didnt know Nancy lived close to the area I was going to be in. This was crazy to me! I called and asked her and she said of course. Nancy made me feel more then welcomed, and being her mother hen self, couldnt keep herself from constantly making sure I was ok. I had to tell her to stop a few times, that I was a 27 year old big girl now, LOL. She just cannot help herself! She is a very loving warm person, and I can honestly say I have never met someone so Christ like then her. Jesus showed me miracle after miracle before my trip, during my trip and after my trip. He showed me I COULD do anything even feeling severely ill and dead tired. He wanted me to claim his promises and help develop my trust in him. Psalms 68:35 O God, You are awesome from Your sanctuary The God of Israel Himself gives strength and power to the people Blessed be God! . How awesome is the Lord Most High the great King over all the earth! (Psalm 47:2) Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. (Psalm 145:5)
