The Time I Couldn’t Walk

This next story I have NO memory of and depending on how your beliefs may be a little controversial. If you find yourself offended then I’m sorry but this is completely the truth. My mom (rest her soul) and my dad would not lie about this. And let’s be honest what would they gain?? I mean God doesn’t need people to lie about who He is or what He is capable of doing.

So, I was maybe two or three years old. My mom had went in to make breakfast and my dad and I were playing in the bedroom. When it was time to go eat breakfast my dad sit me down off the bed, it was then that he said my legs crumbled out from underneath me like wet washcloth, and he said I yelped. My dad said he recalls thinking that may be my legs had fallen asleep not even thinking that we has been up and playing.  He took me to the kitchen and put me in the highchair. After breakfast him and mom were concerned so they tried to stand me up again but the same thing happened again. Can you imagine being a parent and your child being perfectly fine then out of blue she/he couldn’t walk?? I think I would have been freaking out but I would like to think I would handle it like my parents did.

Remember, how I told you my parents were praying parents right? Well, this time was no different. We lived fairly close to the church that my dad was the pastor of at the time. So, he told my mom to take me and pray over me(I don’t remember if she was to use anointing oil or not but I’m pretty sure she did) and he was going to the church to pray. I’m not sure if it happened immediately or if it took a little while but I started walking again. Praise the Lord! Later that evening we went to a friend’s house for dinner and I was playing with the kids like normal. Then my mom noticed that I was limping. She knew that it wasn’t right so, her and her friend took me back to the bedroom and prayed over me again! And again I was healed! Again I have never had any issues like this since!! 

I have felt that since the day I was born the devil has always been on my heels. He has always wanted to hinder or stop me from doing what God wants me to do. As you will you will see you my life hasn’t been easy but God has never left me. He has always been right there with me! I hope you continue to continue to come back to be blessed by what God has done in my life. ☺
