John 14:12
of my heart right now, it is that this verse would become a reality in
my life. I have heard the rumor that there is something more. I have
began to walk into that reality in my life. The reality where I wake up
and live victoriously every day. The reality that God loves me and won’t
relent until He has all of me. But I still hear a rumor… There is
more?? Could there be? Is it possible that there could be more of Him
that I can know and experience? Then I read this-
“Jesus sent out the twelve
apostles with these instructions…
Heal the sick
Raise the dead
Cure those with
leprosy
Cast out demons
Freely you have received, freely
give!”
Matthew 10:5+8
I crave to pray for someone who is crippled and have their leg grow
back. I want to pray for the dead to live again and watch a dead person
rise to walk again. I am so strongly desiring for the supernatural to
become natural in my life. And so I ask.
He’s told me “You do not have because you do not ask”
(James 4:2). So I’ve been asking. Asking for visions and dreams. Asking
that my prayers will bring heart and body healing. Asking that God will
meet me in an unexpected, holy way that brings me to my knees in awe.
He answered me. Not how I expected… because when does God really ever
do that in our lives? But He answered.
We came to a house to
pray with our whole team. While being led by one of the church members,
we trailed along talking and laughing. When we came upon this house
there was a woman sitting outside on a wall about 2 feet tall. Anna’s (I
came to find out her name later) legs were out in front of her and
there was a heavy metal walker next to her. She looked to be in her late
sixties with watery eyes and gray hair.
Brian Woods sat down next to her and said “I think I’m just going
to hang out with her here”. As I looked at her, and her feet, I suddenly
remembered the nail polish that I had in my purse. Why was I carrying
around nail polish? God only knows…
But suddenly I heard my voice saying to Brian “I think I want to
paint her nails”. Looking at her feet, they looked far from clean and
her nails were not the healthiest I have seen. Yet as I spoke, I knew
that THIS was the moment where the supernatural was becoming natural to
me. I wanted so badly to show her Jesus and the only way I could think
to do that was to paint her toenails.
We later found out that her leg had been broken and mended back together with a piece of iron that now was in her leg. Our whole team prayed for her to be healed. Though He did not do it in that moment we have faith that He will heal her leg quickly
Anna limped away that day with toes that were bright peach. I walked
away with a little piece of the Kingdom tucked away in my heart. God
had shown me a place where His little miracles happen every day. And
maybe that moment was the whole reason I came on this race.
…To paint Anna’s toes in the middle of Tanzania so that she could know
she is beautiful and loved. So please, Jesus, give me more…
