"Your way, O God is holy" (Ps 77:13)  

---

It was in 1971 that tonsillitis began giving me trouble. Surgery kept me well for seven years. Then began festering of the throat. All the doctors I consulted prescribed antibiotics, giving me only temporary relief. Finally they called it an incurable case. I switched from tablets to periodic injections. In 1995 I went for my first retreat to Potta. During the third retreat there the pain became worse and the sudden bleeding in the throat scared me. But I consoled myself that I was in the presence of Jesus. On the last but one day of the retreat, I began praying in tongues. I returned with my ailment still afflicting me. On my way home I called at an ayurveda doctor's clinic and related my experiences of the retreat. He said that God had seen my pain and he would surely heal me. He also gave me a little medicine. In two days I was completely healed. Ever since I have not had any trouble whatsoever. Moreover I got rid of my addiction for alcohol and smoking. A rash that often broke out all over the body was also healed. Above all, the mental tension I was suffering from was eased and I felt great interior freedom. I am now as fit as a fiddle. Thank you Jesus. Praise you Jesus!
