Brian’s cold was a regular part of his seasonal doldrums starting about November and lasting till Spring. The liturgy minister in the church he attended, knowing Brian’s talent with a guitar, wondered if he would like to join the Sunday worship band. Brian told him about his cold even though the cold didn’t stop him from doing anything he really wanted to do.
Without warning the minister put his hand on Brian’s shoulder and prayed out loud while everyone watched that Brian be healed. Embarrassed but courteous Brian accepted the prayer expecting nothing much from it. Three days later the cold was gone and it never returned.

I am on vacation, but this story occurred to me and so I scheduled it for today without being able to participate in the link party.
Oh yes. We serve a mighty God.
Soli Deo Gloria!

Perhaps Brian learned a lesson. Most of the time, God heals as a response to one’s faith; sometimes he does it to prove he is God! He leaves me speechless at this kind of God act.

Oh, I didn’t guess that. Lessons come; they also go if the lesson is learned. Sometimes the greatest of teachers has to say, “You don’t get it yet; let’s have another go at it.” I’m so glad He doesn’t leave gaps.
