I AM the Witness
In the fall of 1984 I had a severe problem with my bladder and a chronic, supposedly incurable condition called interstitial cystitis. The symptoms included bleeding and severe pain in the bladder. I had been unable to work for 3-4 weeks and couldn’t be out of bed for more than an hour at a time due to the pain. The doctors told me there was nothing they could do for me.
One Wednesday evening Mother was scheduled to be at Deer Park Chapel for a healing service, one where she would give calls for people individually. My co-workers fortunately forced me to go to the service and insisted that I go to the altar when Mother called for people.
I went to the service, but by the time I got there and had been in the chapel about an hour, I was in too much pain to stay. At a certain point I decided I just couldn’t sit there one minute longer. When I got up to leave, Mother was walking in the door, so I decided to stay.
When Mother asked for people to come to the altar for her to give calls for them, I forced myself up there. I told my story and she made fiery calls for me and my situation. I remember looking into her eyes and seeing the depth of her love for my soul and her sincere desire to help me. That in itself was a touching experience that I will never forget.
When I left the altar the pain was totally gone and I was back at work the next day for the first time in 3-4 weeks. Although I still had to fight the condition and it took some time to get back in top shape, I remained on my feet after that night and this condition has been in remission to date by the grace of God. It was the most amazing thing I have ever experienced.
