This
is a story of Friday night. I can tell you right off the bat that
you’re probably going to have a tough time believing this stuff
happened. You probably won’t believe it at all. That’s okay. I’m
not going to force feed it to you. I’m just telling you what I
experienced, and you can make your own conclusions. Just promise me
you’ll still talk to me and not treat me like I’ve completely lost my
mind.

Friday
night, a few of us went to our contact John’s house for worship with
the H-Squad. While in the middle of singing, I heard a voice in my
head saying that I needed to grab Danielle and pray for one of the H
girls who had a fractured ankle. God, you have got to be kidding
me. Seriously? Seriously. So

I went to Danielle and told
her that we needed to go pray for
Renee.
Renee.
I
had spoken to Renee once briefly Thursday night at the service we had
for the women, but we had never actually introduced ourselves. So up
I go to her, and (essentially) say, “Hi. My name’s Liz. I’m
supposed to pray for your ankle now.” She looked a little
surprised, but welcomed the offer. Danielle placed her hands on her
ankle, and I placed mine slightly above. We started praying healing
as we were taught in Coleraine by Mark Marx. In the middle of
praying, Renee started laughing uproariously. “There is something
going on in my leg, and I don’t know whether to laugh or cry!”

After
we finished, Renee said that her entire right leg felt like it was on
fire, and the swelling that had just been present in her ankle was
gone. Not a complete healing, but I’ll be honest, I wasn’t expecting
complete healing of a fractured ankle right then and there. Hah. It
gets better.

Ten
minutes before worship was going to end, Drea came up to Danielle and
me, and said that Renee’s ankle was completely healed. Um, what?

Danielle
and I got up and went back over to where Renee had been sitting with
her crutches. Her ankle was out of its bandage and someone else was
holding her crutches while Renee was testing out her foot. She was
putting her whole weight on it, and only complained of a bit of
stiffness from not moving it in two and a half weeks. Danielle and I saw her again on Sunday, and she was still off her crutches.

I’ve
probably officially crossed into the realm of the crazies, but that’s
what I saw happen. I wouldn’t want to make this sort of thing up,
and I’d even rather not share it, because then I’m officially branded
a crazy person. But it happened. You don’t have to believe me, and
if you don’t, that’s totally okay. As long as we can still be
friends, and you don’t toss me in with the crazy people, that’s fine
by me.
